Hayley Mills with Roy Boulting, who on seeing the expense of the première said "Well there go your profits Chris!"
'Though one is surprised to see it done at all any longer, I have to admit it is done very well in Christopher Miles's romantic comedy……'Time for Loving' is one of the very few English films made in France that is worth the Channel crossing.'
LONDON EVENING STANDARD
'It is directed and acted with style and Paris looks as beautiful as ever.'
DAILY MAIL
'The most striking quality of this handsome, erratic film, is its splendidly square sense of place….Christopher Miles accurately gauges the material things that give substance to an experience…. really it is less a time for loving than time remembered'.
DAILY TELEGRAPH
'…..and its amusing to see Michel Legrand, most prolific of film music composers, making a spirited appearance with a trombone: in my eyes Lila Kedrova never over-acts: one admires too, the re-creation of war-time Paris, streets empty of traffic except for bicycle-taxis'.

Sunday Times
'Directed with leisurely sophistication by Christopher Miles - reunited with his Virgin and Gypsy stars Joanna Shimkus and Mark Burns -….. it’s a rose among the West End weeds'
