"A deliciously wicked character portrait" | ||||
"Cynically witty lines, top-notch characterizations and welcome guest appearances by Jimmy Durante and Reginald Gardner (doing a take on Noel Coward) make for classic comedy." | ||||
"It's a pleasant movie, not quite up to its reputation." | ||||
"Superb casting and nifty work by every member of the company rates plenty of breveting." | ||||
"The play was built on topical jokes and a series of vaudeville turns, and in this version the jokes are flat and the turns seemed forced and not very funny." |
