Maartje Brak *Johan Schilthuyzen *Jules Verstraete ReceptionWriting for 'The Spectator', Graham Greene praised the film's documentary prologue as "an exciting piece of pure cinema", and commented that the story which follows "has some of the magnificent drive one felt behind the classic Russian films, behind 'Earth' and 'The General Line': no tiresome 'message', but a belief in the importance of a human activity truthfully reported". Greene also noted, however, that "the photography is uneven: at moments it is painfully 'arty', deliberately out of focus". (reprinted in: ) References | |
