- Critics' reviews
-
-
"There's very little in The Chorus you haven't seen before, but the movie's depth of sentiment -- especially its profound humanism -- makes it worth experiencing again"
-
"An appealing lead performance from its leading man and a wonderfully sentimental, if overly familiar, story line are the chief virtues of this French drama"
-
"The crime of The Chorus isn't that it's corny. (I like corny.) It's that its corniness seems programmed"
