Come Back, Little Sheba Ratings & Reviews
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
The performances are, as expected, strong, but almost everything about this production remains stagebound.

To my surprise, in COME BACK, LITTLE SHEBA almost every scene of Lancaster's was stolen by his costar, Shirley Booth. She is an absolute powerhouse in her silver screen debut.
Minnesota Spokesman-Recorder
Nell Dodson Russell
I won't go into the plot of Come Back, Little Sheba because I want you to see it for yourself.
The Nation
Manny Farber
Come Back, Little Sheba, Hal Wallis's high-priced entry for the Academy awards, is not so much a good picture about a dismal, twenty-year old marriage as a somewhat funny and touching play that someone failed to make into a movie.
Associated Press
Bob Thomas
Come Back, Little Sheba is a faithful reproduction of the stage play, together with its assets and liabilities.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
In this adaptation of Inge's play, Daniel Mann, a specialist of melodramas, gets a good performance from Shirely Booth as a self-pitying housewife but a misguided one from Burt Lancaster.
Nick's Flick Picks
Nick Davis
Nothing comes alive at you. Nothing roots us to the Delaneys, and in turn nothing grounds them in any world except that of Inge's creaky schemata.
Kansas City Kansan
Steve Crum
This is Booth's movie as was the Broadway production. Dynamic.

David Bezanson
among the best of several booze-obsessed Hollywood melodramas of the 1950s
