Movie Reviews

AALBC.com - 10/10 by Kam WilliamsA moving, must-see documentary about the demise of one of the last vestiges of segregation. Could it be more fitting that the plaintiffs in the landmark case eradicating the crime of loving a person of a different color would be named Loving!
San Francisco Chronicle - 10/10 by David WiegandOne of the many virtues of Buirski's film is that it doesn't hit viewers over the head with the parallel between the Lovings' case and the debate over same-sex marriage.
New York Times - 10/10 by Alessandra StanleyThe tone of the film is solemn and pious, which seems almost inevitable when the topic is segregation and racial intolerance. But there are other reasons to watch this film besides feel-good expediency.
Spirituality and Practice - 8/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatA riveting documentary about the case that went all the way to the Supreme Court and legalized interracial marriage in 1967.
PopMatters - 8/10 by Cynthia FuchsThe film's story of this Supreme Court victory lays out both its legal and moral import, and then turns back to Richard and Mildred Loving's experience.
Film Experience - 7/10 by Glenn DunksIt would be easy to make the film a grandiose sweeping tale of love and justice prevailing in the face of racism and hate... But this is instead a film that, like its subjects, prefers its silences to remain so.
ReelTalk Movie Reviews - 7/10 by Donald J. LevitNot to take away from the film's importance, the whole is like Richard Loving, stolid and admirable but not inspiring.
User Review - 10/10 by Sue SThis worked so well; I can't imagine anyone not appreciating the quality here. With a minimum of melodrama the story is told, and the survivors interviewed; what really makes this special is the inclusion of long unbroken segments of footage shot at the time in the couple's home and at the courthouse that makes us feel as if we know them. A timely story, expertly told.
User Review - 10/10 by Michael CWith great archival footage this documentary tells more than a story of a civil rights struggle of an interracial couple in Virgina in the early 60's, but that of a romance, a real love that could not be torn apart by bigotry.
User Review - 10/10 by Courtney KEveryone should watch this movie...If the laws still existed today it would have been a felony for me to marry my wife...Astonishing that someone could legally justify denying people the right to marry...Oh wait!??
