Movie Reviews

rec.arts.movies.reviews - 9/10 by Shane BurridgeThe idea ... has been done before in everything from comedies to horror movies
Chicago Sun-Times - 9/10 by Roger EbertBogarde turns in a competent performance not quite up to his best, but it really isn't his picture anyway. It belongs to the kids, and they are very real kids.
The Spectator - 9/10 by Penelope HoustonIt isn't the actor's fault, it isn't precisely the director's fault, that a subject which always threatened to be unmanageable finally proves itself to be so.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 6/10 by Dennis SchwartzClayton and Bogarde felt the end result was a failure, and I concur.
User Review - 10/10 by Knox MThe best film of 1967 made by the only filmmaker to have directed only 5 star films is one of the most sublime movies ever made.
User Review - 8/10 by Allan CDirector Jack Clayton is an interesting case. He's a filmmaker who made films for over four decades, but only has seven films to his credit as director. Some of his most well known are his adaptation of Henry James' "Turn of the Screw," re-titled "The Innocents" and his adaptation of the Ray Bradbury short story "Something Wicked This Way Comes." Those two and this film all share rather macabre elements of childhood. This film revolves around a family of several children who's mother dies and then children decide to hide her body and just tell everyone their mother is ill so that they are not split apart by child welfare. It's a rather heartbreaking story and does an excellent job capturing the child's perspective on this tragic situation. It's not as edgy as "The Cement Garden" and not as glib as "Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead," but is an intelligent and fascinating story.
