Reception
On Friday, October 29, 1954, the newspaper Verdens Gang praised the acting and direction, but it also wrote: "It is again the script that has failed. The writer did not have enough ideas to fill the film with content. The result is many stagnant scenes and many unnecessary repetitions. Therefore the viewer often loses interest along the way." Verdens Gang rated the film a 3 out of 6.
