- Critics' reviews
-
-
"[Pennies] is the most emotional movie musical I’ve ever seen"
-
"Herbert Ross has actors speak a line, then wait two beats before delivering the next phrase. Technique smothers such ordinarily lively performers as Martin, Peters and Harper."
-
"Not for everyone, but those who respond to it will find it unforgettable."
