Lubitsch's last film and one of his most engaging comedies.
Tom Milne, Time Out

Let is be noted at the outset that Ernst Lubitsch has come up with a delectable and sprightly lampoon in Cluny Brown.
A.H. Weiler, New York Times

Whammo entertainment.

This late, delicious comedy of manners by Ernst Lubitsch is a notch below his best, but the character acting is so good one hardly notices.
