49. Metascore. 7 reviews · Provided by Metacritic.com. 80. Variety. Audrey Hepburn and Shirley MacLaine, in the leading roles, beautifully complement each other. Hepburn’s soft sensitivity, mar- velous projection and emotional understatement result in a memorable portrayal. MacLaine’s enactment is almost equally rich in depth and substance. 75.

The Children’s Hour is a biting (though somewhat muted) condemnation of the corrosive natures of homophobia and hatred, and its all-too-inevitable conclusion seals it as a crushing –and necessary– piece of cinema. Joe Muldoon – Battle Royale With Cheese. Story: A rebellious student at a girls’ school accuses two teachers of lesbianism. ( IMDb)
