Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: Period of Adjustment is lower case Tennessee Williams, but it also illustrates that lower case Williams is superior to the upper case of most modern playwrights.
Fresh: All in all, it's an appealing mix, even if the shifts in tone seem to unsettle cast and director alike. First-rate performances, though, especially from Fonda, as a wide-eyed Southern belle.
Customer Reviews
Terrific!
This is one of my favorite holiday movies. Sweet, funny, painful and honest, it's Jane at her most luscious, Tony Franciosa at his most charming and a wonderful top-notch supporting cast. If you like simple movies from back in the day before sex, nudity and CGI became the norm, you'll like this one. It's even in black & white!
