"The movie meanders quite a bit, and is much longer than it needs to be, and suffers from a kind of stiffness -- except for Marilyn! It's one of her greatest performances. Her comic timing in the drawing room scenes -- nothing about making it was easy, it didn't come naturally, but her touch is so light you feel like it's some thing happening for the first time. She does some of her best work in this stodgy, dry film."
