Reception



'The Calgary Herald' wrote, "'Find the Lady' is a numbskull number about as funny as a slice of pizza in a hat... A British-Canadian co-production, 'Find the Lady' stumbles from one worn-out comedy chestnut to another. There is the off-key opera singer, the transvestite who complains that life is a 'drag', lots of dumb blonds, and even dumber cops."
