A Special Day Ratings & Reviews
Gay Community News (Boston)
Eric Rogers
The movie offers a moving story of two tortured souls struggling against the quiet violence that preceded the holocaust.
The Retro Set
Nathanael Hood
A Special Day remains a particularly potent demonstration of Ettore Scola's tremendous talents.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
An observant drama on the ill-effects of fascism, that's grounded on the lives of two anguished lonely souls with opposite personalities, beliefs and lives.
Q Network Film Desk
James Kendrick
takes the framework of a familiar subset of romantic drama and vigorously turns it on its head as a means of tackling an acute example of what it means to be a social outsider
Slant Magazine
Clayton Dillard
The Criterion Collection's 4K Blu-ray offers a beautiful transfer of Ettore Scola's long unavailable gem.

Emanuel Levy
Cast against type, Mastroianni (Oscar-nominated) and Sophia Loren deliver great performances in Ettore Scola's sensitive drama about a suicidal homosexual and a tired housewife.
New York Times
Vincent Canby
In Ettore Scola's funny, humane A Special Day, Antonietta and Gabriele are never really a couple, but their brief encounter lights up the screen with the kind of radiance you get only from great movie actors who also are great stars.
Spirituality & Practice
Mary Ann Brussat
Sophia Loren puts in her best performance since Two Women.
