Criterion Channel: "This intense, groundbreaking psychological drama—one of the first major films to deal seriously with the subject of mental illness—is widely credited with leading to extensive real-life reforms within America’s mental institutions." 很喜欢片尾的设定，Virginia说病好了的一大征兆是她不再爱Dr Kik了，Kik回答"You never really were." 象征彻底走出恋父情结。
