An American doctor (Blair Brown) in London falls in love with a charmer (Bruno Ganz) who betrays her.

Chicago Reader

Staggering out of Strapless, female viewers may well regret that they hadn’t opted to save their money for Rambo III.

Chicago Sun-Times

The relationship between Raymond and Lillian... must be an enigma in order to work at all.

Rated: 3/4

It is a warmed-up Summertime, with Miss Brown as Miss Hepburn and a Mr. Ganz as Mr. Brazzi, except that it has no pathos.

The strapless gown is but another of David's Hare-brained metaphors for the lives of women.

Indeed, the film's inadequacy lies in its failure to interweave its different themes.
