Reviews in German: «Ein junger Soldat wird des Mordes an einem Zivilisten beschuldigt. Dank der Hartnäckigkeit seines Vorgesetzten und seiner Kameraden kann der wahre Schuldige, ein Soldat, der aus Antisemitismus gehandelt hat, gefunden und mit einem Trick überführt werden. Der Film zeichnet mit Mitteln des "Film noir" ein kritisches, bitteres Bild einer gelangweilten, trost- und hoffnungslosen verlorenen Generation im Amerika kurz nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg und ist gleichzeitig ein eindrückliches Plädoyer für Toleranz gegenüber rassischen und anderen Minderheiten.» (Zoom)
