The Incredible Sarah Reviews
Variety
Variety Staff
The achievement here is that Jackson makes the character comprehensible and, in a qualified way, admirable, notwithstanding the clear evidence of a totally selfcentered nature.
Gannett News Service
Bernard Drew
Ruth Wolff's inexcusably banal screenplay and Richard unimaginative direction conspire to make the film appear as old fashioned as an old Grace Moore movie.
Big Mama Rag
Gayle Novack
The fact that Readers Digest was the executive producer for the film is a clue to its snail-paced mediocrity.
Los Angeles Free Press
Ruth Batchelor
In short, this cumbersome script lets us know little of the real Sarah Bernhardt.
New York Times
Vincent Canby
[Glenda Jackson] is the only reason to put up with the clichéd lunacies of The Incredible Sarah for more than five minutes. In every other respect, the movie is a disaster.
Christian Science Monitor
David Sterritt
The Incredible Sarah is so old-fashioned it creaks. Yet it's not bad fun if you can still work up an appetite for a flamboyant ''biopic" that spins legend upon myth until facts don't seem to matter any more.
El Nuevo Herald (Miami)
Rene Jordan
As art, it is apologetic, and there is no one dares to defend it, but on its own level of ancient nostalgia and sensibility, it is irresistible. [Full review in Spanish]
The New Yorker
Pauline Kael
The Incredible Sarah is an aberration. Stiffer and more anachronistic than the Warner bios of the thirties.
