Madame Souzatska
- Commentary: I have watched this movie only once, so far, in the past, in the theater, but have never forgotten it.
Roger Ebert was so pleased with this movie that he immediately preceded his review with a delightful interview of Shirley MacLaine in which he questions her about her thoughts about and preparation for this role, which is quite a bit different than her ouevre up to that point.
