RTLos Angeles TimesOct 14, 2011

One of the most subversive films to come out of World War II, a British drama that was unsettling in its day and is even more so now.

Part paranoid propaganda, part thriller and part quaint period study, Went the Day Well? is an entertaining oddity begging for an update.

Home-front propaganda has rarely seemed so cutthroat or so cunning; for Americans, the chance to see this rarity is an opportunity to indulge in the sort of cinematic ecstasy that makes us obsessed with movies in the first place.
