One of MacLaine's strongest, most colorful roles
Kalamazoo Gazette
Rating: 3/4 --
[MacLaine's] funny, clever and wondrous to behold, and she carries Madame Sousatzka to heights that might not readily seem warranted by the script, which is composed of elements that might seem overly familiar.

An extraordinary movie that loves music and loves the people it is about, and has the patience to do justice to both.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Madame Sousatzka stars Shirley MacLaine as the eccentric, endearing and flamboyant piano instructor who teaches gifted students how to play and how to live. In her dark London flat that serves as a shrine to her troubled musical past, Madame Sousatzka begins teaching a charismatic young prodigy named Manek (Navin Chowdhry). Pulling Manek away from Madames disciplined teachings are his ambitious mother, a relentless talent agent, and his own desire to follow the reckless whims of a teenage life. When her talented young protege decides to debut at a prestigious concert against her wishes, Madame Sousatzka once again faces the pain of losing a cherished part of her life to the changing world around her.
