The Whales of August Reviews
Apollo Guide

The names of Lillian Gish, Bette Davis and Vincent Price will never be forgotten by film lovers. The Whales of August, on the other hand, surely will be.
Laramie Movie Scope
Robert Roten
This is not my cup of tea, but it is a fascinating last picture show for a likeable legendary acting troupe.

Mattie Lucas
A quiet, unassuming masterpiece that deserves to be cherished,
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Ken Hanke
A worthy film that affords the viewer a rare chance to see some fine acting by stars the like we'll not see again.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Here is a quiet film of a conventional story, a star vehicle designed to show everyone to advantage.

Gish rules the day as the more empathetic sister, but Anderson brings them to a masterful finale.
