Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Films of Tennessee Williams' plays now often look very artificial and overwrought, but with this Huston came up with one of the best.

rotten:
Mr. Huston has got some scenic beauty of the Mexican coast here and there in black-and-white. But the setting, at the last, becomes monotonous -- just like the all-talk, no-play film.

rotten:
No one but Tennessee Williams could have concocted it, but anyone other than John Huston should have directed it.

fresh:
Direction by John Huston is resourceful and dynamic as he sympathetically weaves together the often-vague and philosophical threads that mark Tennessee Williams' writing.
