“(OK) Hard to see why this film opens a cycle of inmensely popular films. Ith has some topical elements: the hspital of apprentices, comminf of age anatomicall referencied, but the adventures are very washed up...Kay Kendall, pretty and elegant in a seocndary role...” read more

“(Mu) Besides the interesting fact of having two actresses interpretating the heroine at the same time; reiterative, monochord and losing the interest and initial sympathy of both and only character...” read more
“(Mu) Modest, quiet, long Chabrol; the crime -as always and even if it is as scnadalous than a rape and killing of a little girl- is less troubling than the characters dilemma after it. Bonnaire is a serene variant comparing to Huppert cycle with Chabrol...” read more

“(OK) Freda antipating peplums and in the same time making a political film with more intrigue of power than action. The race track of 'cuadrigas' is Ben Hur Style but that is an unreachable reference; Freda is better with Gianna Maria surrounded by shields trying to escape the blind man...” read more

“(OK) Granowsky has russian flavour and mind. Giant Baur amuses as Tarass and invents his own coreography. Aumont is at its rare best, losing his mind to Darrieux and his life, because Tarass makes his tragical move....” read more
