Sight and Sound - 09/01/1978
"...Dominated by an intellectual, puzzle-making mood..."
New York Times - 02/16/1979
"...Fassbinder's elegant, comic, purposely precious film version [of Nabokov's book] adapted by the playwright Tom Stoppard, who has been inspired Nabokov to attain new heights of splendid lunacy, and acted by Dirk Bogarde, who gives one of the wittiest performances of his entire career..."
Film Comment - 05/01/2011
"An unlikely meeting of two radically different sensibilities, Fassbinder's 1978 film transforms Nabokov's arch 1934 pastiche of Dostoevsky and dime-store mysteries to his own ends....Oddly affecting."
Sight and Sound - 08/01/2011
"[I]f ever there was a supergroup film it was DESPAIR....What collected fame!"
