The film is set in a flophouse, of sorts, for the lowest elements of society. Inside this large but very shabby room live a variety of down and out people–a dying woman, her alcoholic husband, a thief, a prostitute, an inscrutable old man and others. It’s obvious that this was originally a play, as the room is THE set for the film and people walk on and off just like a play–making it seem very confined and claustrophobic. As for the plot, the folks just talk and talk and talk. The only real letup is the almost Buddha or Christ-like old man who is new to the room. Unlike the rest, he has maintained his humanity and acts, at times, more like a social worker than a resident. While I suppose some find all this interesting, I just found it dull, depressing and incessant and couldn’t wait for it to end because the material is just unappealing and bad.
