Critical reception
The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "This routine crime tale combines a certain amount of realism (mainly in settings rather than characterisation) with a larger amount of unlikely motivation. The boy does not convince: he is stated to be of above average intelligence, yet seems habitually to act with crass stupidity. Despite three credits for the music score, the main role is taken by Tchaikovsky's 6th Symphony, which is vaguely connected with the story."[2]
