What a stimulus to thought it is, this good, brave, outspoken unfettered picture.
(Observer)
An unusual theme, well directed and produced with experiments in technique which in the main succeed. The photography and lighting and the acting... are most sensitive and effective.
(Monthly Film Bulletin)
A really intelligent film and more moving in parts than anything this country's studios have produced before.
(Manchester Guardian)
Boldly imaginative in theme and treatment.
(Sunday Express)
If I thought it wouldn't keep too many people away, I'd call it a work of art.
(Daily Express)
More interesting technically than anything since Citizen Kane.
(Manchester Guardian)
Beautifully performed, closer in tone to Powell and Pressburger than to the British mainstream, it's weird and unusually gripping.
(Geoff Andrew, Time Out Film Guide, 1998)
