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." 很喜歡片尾的設定，Virginia說病好了的一大征兆是她不再愛Dr Kik了，Kik回答"You never really were." 象征徹底走出戀父情結(jié)。
