A DISTANT TRUMPET

 Of her role in A DISTANT TRUMPET, Pleshette said,
"I don't think I'm especially good or bad
—the role is certainly not one
that calls for any special talent.
I'm just a girl who gets Troy."

"Troy Donahue is an animated Ken doll with golden hair,
caught between the Barbie and Midge dolls
impersonated by Suzanne Pleshette and Diane McBain."
—TIME 

"Miss Pleshette and Miss McBain would make
any picture look good. Their roles hardly tap
what histrionic resources may lurk
beneath those beautiful facades."
—VARIETY

"By the time you've spent a half-hour
watching lumpish young Troy Donahue drag himself with an utter lack of fervor through the standard situations of this film, you won't care whether Suzanne Pleshette gets him
before femme fatale Diane McBain does or
whether the Chiricahua Indians beat both of them.
As a matter of fact, you'll probably hope they do."
