Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
From The Terrace builds up to one big cliche.

fresh:
This is a handsome picture, well-performed and emotionally intriguing as it describes the rise of a young business man and the corrosive dead-lock of his loveless marriage.

rotten:
A tolerable (if interminable) piece of mediocrity from 1960.

fresh:
Robson's film is still highly watchable, with Paul and Joanne pretending their marriage is on the rocks, and all sorts of machinations in the boardroom and the bedroom.
