Movie Reviews

Turner Classic Movies Online - 8/10 by Sean Axmaker... a bittersweet drama of the twilight of a theatrical way of life.
Los Angeles Times - 8/10 by Kevin Thomas"Shakespeare Wallah" is a tribute to the gallantry, talent and courage of the Kendals. Its gentle humor, however, has a Chekhovian cast.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) - 6/10 by Ken HankeSurprisingly light and enjoyable early James Ivory film with luminous Felicity Kendal.
User Review - 8/10 by Lee MI really enjoyed this movie in class, great story.
User Review - 6/10 by Edward WMerchant Ivory's first important film, which effectively launched the career of Felicity Kendal. Although fictional, the story is loosely based on her family's experiences in India during the mid-twentieth century. The Kendals, in fact, make up most of the major cast.
User Review - 4/10 by Jessica TI watched it for 5 minutes..... Felicity Kendall is a draw!
