	The Harvard Crimson :: News :: The Millionairess
		The Millionairess belongs to the former category, but in no way begs comparison with the body of other works written by men of 80.
		The Millionairess is, in terms of style and construction, the most conventional of Shaw's late plays.
		While before and after it he was veering off in countless strange directions, for this effort Shaw marshalled all his technical prowess and produced the definitive summation of his theories concerning power, money, work, and conscience.

	The British Theatre Guide : Reviews - The Millionairess (DVD)
		The Millionairess was one of Shaw's final plays, written when he was 79, but still contains sparkling comedy that is almost in Noël Coward mode.
		This is particularly the case when the hideously self-possessed heroine finally almost meets her match in a penniless Indian doctor, the part made famous on film by Peter Sellers and here rendered very effectively by future Dr Who, Tom Baker.
		The pleasure of The Millionairess lies in Maggie Smith's superb acting as the arch heroine who is used to getting her way and running over those who get in her way.

	The Millionairess Film Review - Time Out Film
		Absurd casting of Loren at the hands of husband Carlo Ponti and indifferent scripting by Wolf Mankowitz were poor beginnings for this turgid adaptation of Shaw's play.
		Millionairess in search of husband lights on poor humanitarian Indian doctor played by Sellers.
		The Shavian wit is dissipated somewhere between the glamorisation of Loren and the 'funny' Indian accent of Sellers which serves as mouthpiece for the familiar socialist message-mongering.

	The Millionairess - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Millionairess is a 1960 romantic comedy film starring Peter Sellers and Sophia Loren set in London.
		The film may be said to have launched Sellers' international career, since it allowed him to take more challenging roles later, such as his lead in Dr Strangelove.
		In recent years, the reputation of The Millionairess has waned somewhat and it is no longer considered the classic it used to be, although it is still enjoyed by fans of the two lead actors.

	Aisle Say (Seattle): THE MILLIONAIRESS
		Shaw's "The Millionairess" is an almost forgotten piece of social comedy, typically intelligent and incisive, a bit long-winded (what, Shaw?!!), filled with skillfully crafted characters and bright dialogue.
		"The Millionairess" is a minor work by a major writer, and this production is characterized by skillful performance and a respectful regard for the play.
		While the pace and dramatic development might be better directed, the cast is fully capable and the evening thoroughly entertaining.

		Thankless because the doctor is a convenience not a character, and no contemporary actor would be willing to enliven the role with the racially based comedy that Peter Sellers once brought to the film version.
		Williams has grand presence in his camel-coloured suit and red fez, but he proves unable to turn this earnest personage into a sage-like figure of sufficient mystery to be worthy of the millionairess.
		The romance between him and Orenstein barely registers on the dial, leaving the play to drift away into thematic fuzziness.

		A comedy love story that sees Sellers playing a poor Indian doctor, dedicated to helping those in need, who more than meets his match when the wealthy spoilt heiress Sophia Loren falls in love with him.
		Based on the play by George Bernard Shaw The Millionairess is great fun, Sellers plays it reasonably straight for once and of course it is well documented that he developed a huge crush on his co-star Loren and almost let it ruin the filming.
		Seller's crush is understandable though, witness the scene where Loren strips down to her underwear in Seller's surgery.

		This is Shaw without much of a premise, without much of a plot, without even one fascinating character and without the dazzling paradoxes that, at best, adorn his dialogue.
		The Asolo production is more than competent, but with a play this unexceptional, not even a fine staging can make us glad we're at the theater.
		You won't be utterly bored -- the comedy's funny occasionally, and the English is elegant, if insufficiently witty.

		There is no escaping the potency of money in George Bernard Shaw's The Millionairess, playing in the main auditorium.
		This is late and decidedly minor Shaw, where he seemed out to show his mastery of the multiple coincidence and random encounters of French farce.
		The opening chit-chat is sub-Wildean, the comic elements include an odd Egyptian doctor, complete with fez, while funny names - the millionairess Epifania, her husband Fitzpassenden and her lover Blenderbland - are intended to add to the overall humour.
