Reception

Lee Margulies of the Los Angeles Times called Number Our Days "beautiful" and "a very human film, full of expressive faces and heartfelt emotion. It is full of compassion but never pity." John J. O'Connor of The New York Times wrote that Number Our Days was "a moving portrait of loneliness, pride, humor, bitterness and dignity". Number Our Days won an Oscar at the 49th Academy Awards, held in 1977, for Documentary Short Subject. Number Our Days was cited when 28 Tonight won an Alfred I. duPont–Columbia University Award in 1978.
