前身是皇军军港的吴港，战後成为船坞工人的生活炼狱。在资本家剥削和枯燥生活的双重煎熬下，躁动的年轻生命，一头栽进暴力漩涡，延搁成长，终日在打斗、赌博、酗酒中寻找暂时的麻醉。吉田喜重通过工头之眼，对不合理的社会现实作出欲迎还拒的批判，被视为日本新浪潮代表作之一。香山美子饰演纯真的酒馆女待，同情工人却惨被强奸，正与负的能量，在大时代中比拼互渗，可有超越对与错，是与非的位置？片末火车站送别一场，在家和社会之间，吉田喜重作出了左翼的选择。　　One of the key films ushering in the Shochiku New Wave era, this raw tale of migrant laborers at a post-war naval base simmers with youthful outrage. Responsible shipyard worker Shimazaki (Hayakawa) is put in charge of new recruits from Osaka. The immature gang quickly finds trouble drinking, gambling, and fighting, and eventually trespassing against what Shimazaki holds most dear - local bargirl Nobu. Revenge, honor, and loyalty are all called into question. Yoshida's groundbreaking film portrayed real social issues in an unromantic light, and paved the way for all the cinematic roughs to come.　　- SummerIFF 2007
