Me, Natalie is a pleasant film, very funny at times, and the evidence in the audience was that women liked it enormously.

Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times
Top Critic
Director, Fred Coe, has the trick of making fearfully unpromising characters... more humanly bearable than the situation really warrants.

Audience Reviews for Me, Natalie

Dec 06, 2007

Coming of age drama has several dated elements and a deliberate pace but also has some fine cogent observations. What makes it really worth seeking out is that it is anchored by a beautiful, naturalistic award level performance by Patty Duke.
