      Penelope Gilliatt New Yorker An affecting social melodrama. Mar 2, 2024 Full Review Jonathan Rosenbaum Chicago Reader Bernard Ray's 1940 "race movie," made for segregated black audiences, is hokey but relatively touching and professional for its genre. Apr 17, 2009 Full Review Film Daily Staff The Film Daily As conceived the piece carries a fair degree of heart or emotion. Considering the fact that it was made on the independent type of budget, it is reasonably well handled... Clarence Muse heads a capable cast. Dec 7, 2020 Full Review Earl J. Morris Pittsburgh Courier Broken Strings is an artistic triumph! Rated: 4/4 Dec 2, 2020 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Heart-felt but clumsily acted all-black musical.
