Times (UK) Staff Times (UK) Tess now rides in motor-cars, rings up on the telephone, and wears expensive gowns at night club... as a result, the story is ruined. Jul 20, 2020 Full Review SMH Staff Sydney Morning Herald [The novel is] a sombre and rather powerful piece of writing. But having been stripped of its literary trappings and made Into a moving picture scenario for the multitude, it glares forth now as, old-fashioned and highly overwrought melodrama. Jul 20, 2020 Full Review Robert F. Sisk Variety It should have made an excellent movie. The story is there, the atmosphere is ideal for settings, and the role for a dramatic actress has never been surpassed. But here it is only fair. Jul 18, 2020 Full Review Robert E. Sherwood LIFE Marshall Neilan is at his best in his direction of Tess of the D'Urbervilles. It is a remarkably fine piece of work on his part, and if the results are not all so good as they should be, the blame is not attributable to him. Oct 7, 2021 Full Review Shadow Stage Photoplay Between the shadow of the censors and the changed viewpoint of today, this sombre Thomas Hardy novel has reached the screen minus most of its vitality. Jul 28, 2020 Full Review Tele Staff Daily Telegraph (Australia) Tess of the d'Urbervilles is most Intense drama. The and suspense It creates are not lifted for a moment, and on the whole the picture is one of the greater achievements of the motion picture industry. Jul 18, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews
