Sylvia Scarlett Ratings & Reviews
ianthomasmalone.com
Ian Thomas Malone
Hepburn delivers a tactful take on gender variance in a film that is otherwise a disaster in practically every regard.
The New Yorker
Richard Brody
Cukor sets the group's sordid schemes awhirl with giddy revelry and unveils the grim realities of scuffling troupers-along with the desires and frustrations that put the whole machine in motion.
Gone With The Twins
Mike Massie
As it turns out, the pairing of Hepburn and Grant alone (and even with George Cukor directing) can't save a picture with no focus and seemingly no purpose.
Esquire Magazine
Meyer Levin (Patterson Murphy)
Surprise performance by Cary Grant. He's good.
Out of the Past
Raquel Stecher
Sylvia Scarlett suffers from a convoluted plot ... Contemporary audiences will be more apt to appreciate the film's exploration of gender identity. It's truly ahead of its time.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
A peculiar, rather audacious gender-bender tale, with Katharine Hepburn as a man for most of the film, keeping Cary Grant (and us) on his toes.
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
Cukor handles these bizarre plot turns with consummate grace.
Movie Metropolis
John J. Puccio
...an interesting if ultimately fruitless collaboration of two of the screen's biggest legends.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Grant gives one of his most energetic and best film performances ever.
Pajiba
Jeremy C. Fox
The earliest and least successful pairing of Hepburn and Grant, Sylvia Scarlett is of interest to their diehard fans but not to many others.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Ken Hanke
Interesting, but never really compelling offbeat comedy-drama
