Reception

[edit]

Dennis Harvey of Variety gave the film a negative review, writing that the film "emerges far more redolent of composite fiction cliches (...) than it does credible experience. The fault lies somewhat with execution that remains stubbornly theatrical..."[1]

Kevin Thomas of the Los Angeles Times also gave the film a negative review and wrote that the film "could stand as a textbook example of how not to bring a play to the screen."[2]
