Fred Hersch Entertainment Weekly Sweet Love, Bitter, a rarely seen predecessor of 'Round Midnight and Bird has a lot going for it. Rated: B- Oct 27, 2010 Full Review Bosley Crowther New York Times This lack of convincing motivation is the fatal weakness of the film. Rated: 2/5 May 9, 2005 Full Review Jonathan Rosenbaum Chicago Reader Though not a success, this independent black-and-white drama... is an unusual and thoughtful effort. Jan 1, 2000 Full Review TV Guide Though a sincere attempt was made to depict the problems surrounding black-white relationships, the characters in the film lack definition. Rated: 2/4 Oct 27, 2010 Full Review Read all reviews
