Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
A distended, talky, redundant and moody melodrama.

It's easy to forgive the movie a lot because of Streisand. She's fantastic.

rotten:
With the script glossing whole areas of confrontation (from the communist '30s to the McCarthy witch-hunts), it often passes into the haze of a nostalgic fashion parade.
