Rating: 3/5 --
Good Dietrich vehicle with the famous "false flashback"
Film Journal International
Wyman is delightful as embryo actress but the choice femme spot goes to Dietrich.

Cinema Sight
Rating: 4/4 --
The standard British murder mystery is raised to a higher plateau by Hitchcock in Stage Fright, but still falters in comparison to the best of the master's works.

TV Guide
A fairly routine thriller, noted chiefly for its cheating flashback, though with much more to enjoy than its detractors -- including Hitchcock -- make out.

Time Out
The issues aren't satisfactorily resolved, but Hitchcock seems to be exploring the ways in which various falsehoods -- the falsehoods of acting, storytelling, and art in general -- can lead to the truth

Chicago Reader
Rating: 2.5/4 --
Blame it on the subject matter: Stage Fright, especially for postwar Hitchcock, is all elbows.
