I just saw the movie and still do not know what to think. It's an uncomfortable movie, no doubt nothing is "light" in the film. The scenes with the crazy 3 who witnessed the murder leading our protagonist to the mentally ill hospital are very well done. The Negro to repudiate his race and to wear the "uniform" of the Ku Klux Klan is a scene that he does not forget.
On the one hand, this film is more disturbing than the Oscar-nominated "One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest", made 12 years later. On the other hand, there are certain scenes of the film that seemed to me that they did not have the proper sequence, as for example the protagonist begins to convince that his girlfriend is his sister.
Well, the film does not leave us indifferent, not at all, and this is already a great merit.
From Samuel Fuller, I had seen "the big red one" and "the white dog", films that I liked a lot. This also I think I liked, but I'm still "absorbing" the movie.
