The first half of the dripping desire scene is really good. Pinter is very good at writing about the processes that push individuals to interact in space and to probe the truth rather than the truth. The second half is very similar to "No Man's Land", watching the male protagonist slip from a smug dream to a colonial dream to an abyss of spiritual emptiness, feeling the corrosiveness of the bourgeois lifestyle to people, Pinter is also timely Climbed out of this abyss. Susan should have sensed the sexual attraction of an ambitious person like Barrett from the start. Sigh again Jimmy Fox for his mismanagement of his acting career. Vera is a typical 60's actress looks.

The whole film is filled with an explosive sudden turn of charm. For example, the love scene between the servants witnessed by the master after returning home early should have put the audience in an extremely embarrassing situation, but at this critical moment, Rossi unexpectedly reversed the master-servant and strong Weak ties, and then Barrett's humble begging in the bar and the coercion of re-entering Tony's house made this series of seemingly broken sudden turns indeed make the whole film's idea escape from the stereotyped mechanical ideological class division, and instead The characters' instinctive impulses, rational etiquette and the soul's selfish desires are at war between heaven and man, and the ebb and flow of personal feelings and power desires among the characters are the core focus of the image. And this may be one of the reasons why it stands out in a series of films that show the power relationship/class division of the characters.
