      Penelope Gilliatt New Yorker There is hardly anything about naval history in Rattigan’s gossipy film, let alone any instinct for predicaments of foreign policy. The movie goes factually all to pot. Jan 23, 2024 Full Review Judith Crist Texas Monthly This is the kind of "historical" that transports one in time to encounter timeless truths about people. And therein is the satisfaction. Jun 12, 2020 Full Review Dick Lochte Los Angeles Free Press Terence Rattigan's script is witty and sophisticated and even literary at times. Jan 2, 2020 Full Review Bernard Drew Gannett News Service Finch, who can do this sort of thing with his eyes closed and one hand behind his back (and indeed he plays most of his scenes with a black patch and one empty sleeve) does much with the little Rattigan has afforded him.
