“After the success of Cover Girl, Rita Hayworth was presented in several musical films in Technicolor (which had become absolutely necessary for wartime escapist cinema), and Tonight and Every Night was a surprisingly excellent film--exhibiting more experimentalism in choreographic concept, and definitely assertive in its representation of Miss Hayworth as the epitome of American glamour. The wartime spirit and exuberance of musical style is very evident in this film; although we were at war, the tribute in this story is to wartime London, where, at the famous Windmill Theater in Piccadilly, the shows never stopped, even during the ‘blitz.' The setting is there, with Rita as a very American showgirl who works ‘tonight and every night.' The script is based upon a play by Leslie Storm about the milieu of show business, and although everyone in the leading roles has a Yankee accent, one must overlook such small points. There is a romance between Miss Hayworth and a dashing RAF man (Lee Bowman), a slight framework on which to suspend several clever musical numbers. Miss Hayworth's fiery tresses were first used in this film with the lyrical abandon generally associated with her image, in a number aptly entitled ‘You Excite Me'....” Albert Johnson, San Francisco International Film Festival '72
