Kate Muir Times (UK) This Ealing comedy is Robert Hamer's directorial debut - he later went on to make one of the best in the genre, Kind Hearts and Coronets. The seeds of that wit are in Pink String and Sealing Wax. Rated: 3/5 May 13, 2016 Full Review MFB Critics Monthly Film Bulletin It reaches a high standard of technical competence, and as a whole rates well above average. Feb 8, 2018 Full Review Amber Wilkinson Eye for Film Despite being uneven, this is worth seeing for Withers' full-blooded performance and its delightfully cynical scenes that skewer notions of idyllic Victorian family life. Rated: 3.5/5 May 21, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews
