Reception
The Sydney Morning Herald said "the script was only a placegetter, but" Noel Ferrier's performance was a "winner."[5]
The Bulletin wrote that "Noel Ferrier, as an uneasy husband who has done the right thing by a girl he imagines must think he is a bad bargain, acts out his psycho-drama while the girl sits and says nothing. After 27 .minutes of this she tells him she loves him madly, he says it’s a small wonder. Slow fade. The real wonder was that anyone, probably only me, was still there for the dramatic climax."[6]
