TV Guide
The Bed Sitting Room is a film which is going to annoy a number of people, amuse but puzzle a like number, and tickle the hell out of a small but. passionately vociferous group, which includes me.

Rating: 2.5/4 --
All of the characters are mad, of course, but that's not the point; this isn't a heavy-handed anti-war parable, but a series of sketches that gradually grow more and more grim.

Rating: 4/5 --
Exactly as dark and surreal as you would imagine a post-apocalyptic black comedy by Spike Milligan would be.

Anything goes, so in the long run nothing much goes, and we're left with actors scampering through charades whose import becomes vaguer with every wild-eyed hit or miss apparition.
