Critic Reviews of "Magnificent Obsession"
New YorkerJune 01, 2015Every step depends on stifled emotions and closely guarded secrets, resulting in a buildup of operatic passion that endows everyday gestures and inflections with grandeur and nobility.
Chicago ReaderApril 30, 2012[Sirk provides] a coolly formal approach to otherwise unwieldy projects.
VarietyMarch 26, 2009It is a sensitive treatment of faith told in terms of moving, human drama which packs emotional impact.
New York TimesAugust 08, 2006Primary credit for mooring the picture to an earthly and earthy plane belongs to the two stars.
TV GuideApril 30, 2012A film requiring as many Kleenex as you can spare, this unabashed appeal to the tear ducts does not fail in its efforts.
Movie MetropolisJuly 25, 2009Sirk, though often celebrated by critics for his ironic approach to the melodrama, takes even his most overwrought scenes quite seriously. Theres not a whiff of condescension to be found...
Slant MagazineJanuary 23, 2009What people don't quite give Sirk credit for nowadays in their rush to justify his intellectual credentials is the fact that if he didn't necessarily believe in the cheesecake he served up.
Parallax ViewJanuary 20, 2009[Sirk's] unreal exaggerations offer a beautiful world of beautiful people and tortured emotions and grand sacrifice to the altar of love.
Ozus' World Movie ReviewsAugust 12, 2005It's almost a miracle at how Sirk makes this preposterous melodrama come to life.
Film4May 24, 2003One of Hollywood's great melodramas, Magnificent Obsession is not in any way spoilt by its nonsensical plot.
