Rating: 3/5 --
Classy soapsuds with a cast that's better than the movie.
Las Vegas Review-Journal
Rating: 3/4 --
Based on a very popular novel, the film is a competent but undistinguished adaptation that breathes only through the presence of its dynamic star.

Rating: 3/5 --
Smart drama featuring Paul Newman in early role.
Dispatch-Tribune Newspapers
The sudsy flavor of old-fashioned daytime serials is often prominent in this overlong high-society drama but the job is done with a lot of skill throughout.

Rating: B --
Paul Newman gives a strong performance in Vincent Sherman's glossy melodrama about a young, cynical, ambitious man, born on the wrong side of the tracks but determined to change his lot.
