Reception

edit

Mary Crosier wrote in The Guardian about "the dreamlike fantasy" but called the production "curiously uneven".[2] The film got a lot of praise from critics and audiences when it was released on 23 December 1960 so much so that the film was shown again on television on 7 August 1961 and it wasn't shown again and now the film lays in the TV Archive.[3]
