Reception
The film premiered in New York on July 31, 1947 as She Returned at Dawn. Critic Bosley Crowther of The New York Times wrote: "Do you remember Danielle Darrieux? ... [I]f she appears little changed, the explanation is simple. 'She Returned at Dawn' is a pre-war film. More than that, it is naive and foolish ... Except for the glimpse of pre-war Darrieux, there is little to see in this film. It is equipped with English sub-titles, which makes little difference either way."[1]
