5 stars (Exceptional) Very slight subject matter in the hands of a genius, like Paderewski playing 'Chopsticks'. Truly demented, wonderful-looking and with one of the great, great character turns from Glenn Anders as Grisby. Unforgettable. ~HiFi
3 stars (Good Enough) What is good is very good with the highlights being courtroom scene plus the different uses of the black & white photography. Rita looking poo-eyed into Welles's eyes looks ridiculous but there are good performances from Everett Sloane & Glenn Anders. ~Tubbs
