- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Impossibly thin, porcelain-skinned Joanne Woodward exuded the perfect blend of vulnerability and confusion -- and sassiness and sex appeal "
-
"Shallow, but the gimmick is appealing, and Woodward's showmanship is very likable."
-
"What seemed steamy in 1957 — a reasonably frank look at mental disorder and repressed sexuality — is today the stuff of Oprah."
