Not truly, I think I just been influenced by seeing it written that way in so many 70s publicity pictures (also for other movies). I just went ahead and removed all instances.--GDuwenHoller! 18:49, 6 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Several paragraphs include only two reviews. Remove quotes and add more reviews.
With that in mind, #Reception might need to be rewritten and expanded entirely.

 WorkingDone with the domestic. I wanted to point out that the reason that some reviews take several paragraphs is that those are the ones belonging to major newspapers. Writers like Vincent Canby (or the LA Times staff writers among others) had an immense reach through their nationally syndicated columns, which were reprinted by most newspapers. They were at the time pretty much considered authorities in film, and still to this day when books mention the reception of films, they focus mostly on their reviews.
That takes us to the next point: At the time, smaller newspapers used to pretty much re-print the same reviews via the news services of say The New York Times, Chicago Tribune, UPI, etc. I added to this article the original reviews, while the rest that I found were just the news wires republished. There are really no other reviews available.--GDuwenHoller! 20:43, 6 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
 Done I trimmed a good deal of the quotations, and I suppose that the ones I left in should be OK now. As I explained above, there is not much to be added that I can find rather than mirrors of the original news wires from major publications.--GDuwenHoller! 18:27, 7 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
