"...It's cleverly and efficiently divided into movements....It features two first class performances by Ellen Burstyn and Alan Alda....Mulligan's direction is strong and sure..." - 11/22/1978 Variety


"...Clearly the actors have a lot to play with....[Burstyn] gives the role a warmth and grace that become quite an adequate substitute for reason." - 11/22/1978 New York Times, p.C9
