Reception

In a contemporary review for The New York Times, critic Howard Thompson called Look in Any Window "a broadly sensationalized little melodrama" and wrote: "Ugly and even sickening as it becomes, this strange little film may grip some spectators ... it's a miracle that the psychotic young protagonist wasn't carrying on like Jack the Ripper instead."^[1]
