前身是皇軍軍港的吳港，戰後成為船塢工人的生活煉獄。在資本家剝削和枯燥生活的雙重煎熬下，躁動的年輕生命，一頭栽進暴力漩渦，延擱成長，終日在打鬥、賭博、酗酒中尋找暫時的麻醉。吉田喜重通過工頭之眼，對不合理的社會現實作出欲迎還拒的批判，被視為日本新浪潮代表作之一。香山美子飾演純真的酒館女待，同情工人卻慘被強姦，正與負的能量，在大時代中比拼互滲，可有超越對與錯，是與非的位置？片末火車站送別一場，在家和社會之間，吉田喜重作出了左翼的選擇。One of the key films ushering in the Shochiku "New Wave" era, this raw tale of migrant laborers at a post-war naval base simmers with youthful outrage. Responsible shipyard worker Shimazaki (Hayakawa) is put in charge of new recruits from Osaka. The immature gang quickly finds trouble drinking, gambling, and fighting, and eventually trespassing against what Shimazaki holds most dear - local bargirl Nobu. Revenge, honor, and loyalty are all called into question. Yoshida's groundbreaking film portrayed real social issues in an unromantic light, and paved the way for all the cinematic "roughs" to come.- SummerIFF 2007

This production of 'Twelve Angry Men', written especially for Studio One, is shorter than the film version and leaves a few twists and turns of plot undeveloped, but it is fifty minutes of class nevertheless. For many years this episode was thought to have been lost. The Museum of Television and Radio (now the Paley Center) had only the first 30 minutes of the hour-long program on a kinescope provided by CBS - the only version CBS had. After nearly 30 years of searching, a copy of the complete program was found in 2003 by filmmaker Joseph Consentino, who was working on a documentary about noted defense attorney Robert Leibowitz (Leibowitz reported on the Charles A. Lindbergh baby kidnapping for the NY radio station WHN) and found a copy of the show in the archives maintained by the children of Leibowitz, Robert Leibowitz and Marjorie Leibowitz Finch. Samuel Leibowitz requested and received a commercial-free kinescope copy of "Twelve Angry Men" from CBS shortly after it aired because of his interest in legal issues. The Leibowitz children donated the kinescope to the museum and it had a re-premiere in May 2003.

拍摄外星人入侵题材的电影无外乎从两方面入手：要么笔调轻快，要么手法沉重。其中并无捷径可寻，也不可能草草绕过了事。但遗憾的是《外太空杀人小丑》仍然试图寻找一条中庸之道，于是他们选中了“马戏团”这个中介。想象一下所谓的惊天大阴谋就是一群穿着小丑服的外星侏儒在地球上大肆破坏，用激光射线枪把人类变成喷喷香闪闪亮的棉花糖——除了让人眼花缭乱一番之外，恐怕很少有人能真正进入情节并真正理解。实际上《外太空杀人小丑》是一部具有强烈超现实主义风格的影片，几乎没有什么娱乐性，核心题材也不那么拿人眼球，所以有点不太容易令你坐下来，安安稳稳地把电影看完。而对于大多数人来说，如果一部关于外星小丑的电影拍的一点也不滑稽，那还有什么可看的呢？不过幸运的是，在后来的一大堆类似题材的电影中，这一部算是优秀的了。
