The Children's Hour Reviews
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Heavy-handed and can't shake its languor.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Ken Hanke
Closer to the play than Wyler's first effort at the story, but oddly less compelling.
Kalamazoo Gazette
James Sanford
Well-acted, albeit dated treatment of a then-taboo topic
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
Though well-acted by Shirley MacLaine and Audrey Hepburn, this second version of Lillian Hellman's play about the malice of lies is not as powerful as the first, in 1936, also helmed by William Wyler.
Photoplay
Janet Graves
Audrey and Shirley manage to give emotional scenes shattering impact, but they're operating against handicaps.
ONE
Alison Hunter
The beautiful black-and-white photography, the score, the impeccable acting and, above all... that master director, William Wyler -- all combine to make a film classic. And when you've seen it, you've seen a landmark in homophile history.
