Leave your thoughts about Patty Hearst.
| Miami HeraldBill CosfordOddly enough, it's as black comedy and social history, far more than thriller or human drama, that Patty Hearst works best. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertThe entire film centers on the remarkable performance by Natasha Richardson as Hearst. She convinces us she is Hearst, not by pressing the point, but by taking it for granted. |
| 48 HillsDennis HarveyIt's a portrayal both sympathetic and grotesquely funny at times. |
| New YorkerPauline KaelThis stylized movie of ideas is a lean, impressive piece of work. |
| Lawrence Journal-WorldDan LybargerSchrader's low-key approach to the tabloid story is refreshing. Richarson is magnificent. |
| The New YorkerRichard BrodyWithout sacrificing his critical judgment, Schrader retains a remarkable sympathy both for Hearst and for those who wrenched her from her life and made her—even if in deed only—one of their own. |
| The New York TimesVincent CanbyPatty Hearst is a model of swift, spare, unsentimental film making about a character who can never be known, as most fictional characters are, and about a specific time and circumstances that, with hindsight, seem incredible. |
| EmpireNick de SemlyenPaul Schrader's intense drama pulls out all the stops. |
| The Globe and Mail (Toronto)Jay ScottPatty Hearst puts forth much less than its pretensions. Frequently wrapped in surrealistic stylization, film manages only to tell Hearst's side of her kidnapping ordeal. |
| Chicago TribuneDave KehrThe enigma not only remains, but, cloaked in Schrader`s mysticism, seems more impenetrable than ever. |
