| Los Angeles TimesSheila BensonBe a little patient: What builds beneath this quiet exterior, shot through with dark wit, is a haunting examination of the price that romantic idealism can exact. |
| Chicago ReaderDave KehrThe ultimate blame for the film's lack of body must lie with Streep, who never succeeds in melding the components of this showy part into an accessible characterization. |
| New York TimesVincent CanbyThere is, possibly, a decent film in Mr. Hare's play, but not as it's been written by him and ornamentally directed by Mr. Schepisi. |
| Radio TimesSue HealEverything is spelt out laboriously with a glum and squeakily pretentious air. |
| User ReviewMichael SMeryl Streep is even better here than in her other more famous movie 1985 movie, Out of Africa. Based on David Hares wonderful play this film features Sir John Gielgud in one of his finest film performances as well. |
