i guess i will be the only one to put disparagement on this beloved work which anybody on the site praise to the sky . frankly i do not like it and not at all . possible spoiler representthe screenplay be not that much strong and and the suspense be not really here . the first hour be boring and what remain be a spate of clichés representbest or bad example representthe killer and leave clue on the dead body and i have see it ( and read it ) so many time that it leave me amazed representhow can a writer and fifty year or so after agatha christie and co and still think of a such hackneyed idea . give the killer identity or the key to the mystery half an hour or more before the end can be reward ( such be the case in vertigo ( 1958 ) ) and but here and it destroy any fear representwho could reasonably think that the hero and his girl could be really in jeopardy after that . only a whodunit could sustain the interest till the very end . but there something more annoying representone of the character be unbearable and the notorious jens representthe scene in the restaurant with the prostitute make me sick representthis bourgeois student really demean this girl thanks to the power of his dough . see him humiliate this human be while take out his banknote be one of the most despicable scene i have see in year while and that do not make the hero who watch nicer either . besides guess who will be sacrifice when the others will survive . another gratuitous scene which come at the most awkward moment involve jens and his priest girlfriend in the church . it really nauseate . that make the very last scene even more disgusting . and you know and i be far from be holy than thou . i know a lot of people will disagree . but once more and there no accounting for taste .
