Critic Reviews for One Night of Love

One Night of Love is basically an operatic film. It's the fact that the film is human, down to earth, that helps most.

An enjoyable light diversion, one worthy of the charm and talent of its stellar performer.

Mordaunt Hall
New York Times
Love and comedy, with grand operatic climaxes. With Grace Moore, Metropolitan soprano superb in the leading role. Highly recommended.

Ann Ross
Maclean's Magazine
The star looks charming and sings like an angel; while Tullio Carminati scores a distinct personal triumph as her leading man.

Helen Brown Norden
Vanity Fair
It's all rather cliche-ridden, but the film was a box office hit and began a brief period of Hollywood stardom for operatic diva Moore.

January 31, 2012 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

TV Guide
Worth watching as a sampler of the kind of musical that prevailed for a short time, the Hollywood operetta, featuring former Metropolitan Opera diva Grace Moore singing arias from Carmen and Madame Butterfly alongside more popular tunes by Kahn and others

Once you got over the thrill of seeing real opera sung onscreen, you get tired of the tired story.

Audience Reviews for One Night of Love

Jan 29, 2014

This film is an attempt to bring opera to the big screen..with a bit of a lame story line around it. It took a few decades but the Metropolitan Opera has the best translation to the big screen. This one doesn't even come close.
