Eddie Cockrell of Variety gave the film a mixed review and wrote that "...Wressnig brings a fine Euro gravity to the updated Catherine Deneuve role, but viewers will be distracted by overly schematic and unconvincing production design."Ron Wells of Film Threat gave it a positive review, praising Kornhauser "...for expressing some unfashionable compassion of a tale that demonstrates that two people, no matter how screwed up, can help each other if they open themselves up."
