Director and screenwriter John Huston has produced many films of this type, but this film about greed, fear and murder in Mexico is undoubtedly the most successful among them. The male protagonist Humphrey LeBogart's superb performance is also an important factor.

His appearance in this film is the most special. In the two-hour video, we watched him gradually change from an amiable person to a paranoid man, and finally killed his friend frantically; causing him to The cause of depravity and madness is gold, and why gold becomes the source of disaster and why it has the power to destroy people's hearts is the focus of this film.

The original novel only contains a very thin social consciousness, but John Huston intensified his attack on capitalists, but the word "capitalism" was not mentioned in the whole film. The idea is to hide behind the actor’s personality and behavioral performance. This should be the best interpretation method for a brilliant director, which implies his own personal point of view but allows the audience to understand it.

Generally speaking, the entire film does not have a complete storyline, and the structure is quite free and unrestrained. The dialogue is filled with criticism of the world by New York "intellectuals" and has a kind of Woody Allen-style self-mockery. It makes people smile, and his comedy style has been established since then.

In addition, Diane Keaton’s neutral dress in the film also led a fashion trend.
