Critic Reviews for The Man I Love

All Critics (3) | Fresh (2) | Rotten (1)

Fascinating mix of romantic soap opera, jazz musical and film noir motifs.

Michael E. Grost
Classic Film and Television
... a refreshingly mature film rich with stories of frustrated lives, unrequited loves and tough times just getting by in the world without selling your soul.

Except for Ida Lupino's feisty performance as a tortured woman in love who tries to help her family, the acting was weak.

Audience Reviews for The Man I Love

Jun 20, 2020

Don't know what director Raoul Walsh did to illicit so many engrossing performances but it sure is cool to watch. The story is uneven but worthy of your attention if you like a woman's melodrama with some noir elements.
