Ingrid Bergman is every inch an actress as she sits in a makeup chair and tells the man with the eye shadow how some magazine is obviously out to sink a knife...

His role is to drown the rationalist Angelo in humanity, and he rants outrageous anecdotes proving that the perversity and saintliness of the human swarm are inextricably intertwined. In the hospital Sammy is seen acting out his mad parables, caring lovingly for the dying, and hooking complaining patients on the morphine he steals and peddles...
