What the critics said

Notable Critics

"The novel wants to be about unresolvability; the movie doesn’t, and isn’t. What’s remarkable about the film is how two such different temperaments as Forster’s and Lean’s could come together."

— Pauline Kael

"An impeccably faithful, beautifully played and occasionally languorous adaptation of E.M. Forster's classic novel."

— Variety Staff
