Leave your thoughts about Tell Me That You Love Me, Junie Moon.
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertIt succeeds, among other things, in making human entertainment out of a rather unlikely story. |
| VarietyVariety StaffAll this is well mounted and lensed but sans the right dramatic flourishes to get human depth, melodramatic gusto or humane symbolism into the right focus. |
| Groucho ReviewsPeter CanaveseI'll say this for Tell Me That You Love Me, Junie Moon. It's a film that takes a big roll of the dice. Is it wrenching? Is it wacky? Well, it's definitely weird. |
| New York TimesVincent CanbyPreminger doesn't direct movies as much as he makes frontal assaults on them. |
| User Reviewangel mIt?s certainly an offbeat story, it jumps from severe tragedy to light comedy rather abruptly. The cast is terrific, it can be a bit extreme at times, but overall it was a good film. Otto Preminger?s direction is a little off. I am sure it was rather revolutionary in 1970. |

| User ReviewMichael PThere are certainly some interesting things about this later effort from director Otto Preminger, but the central characters are far more annoying than endearing, which makes the film an irritating chore to sit through as a whole. |
| User ReviewMolly RWhen I finished this movie, I thought, ?WTF was that?? This is one of the weirdest movies I have ever seen and not in a good way. The plot is convoluted and it is pretty slow moving. Not one I need to see again. |
| User ReviewJonathan DWow this sucked so much I don't even know where to begin. i can't believe that I made it through the entire movie. I know why it has been out of print for 20+ years. Unfortunetly for me I had to buy it to see it now what am i going to do. Liza Minnelli acted nicely with what she was given though. |
