Darling Ratings & Reviews
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
It is precisely Diana's lack of intellectual sophistication that makes her interesting.
Loud and Clear Reviews
Sebastian Zavala Kahn
The script might judge its protagonist quite harshly [...], but Christie's work is timeless, showing that a brilliant central performance can indeed save a movie.
Arizona Republic
William J. Nazzaro
Miss Christie's performance is remarkably vibrant and outgoing.
New York Times
Bosley Crowther
[Schlesinger] has made a film that will set tongues to wagging and moralists to wringing their hands.
LIFE
Richard Schickel
I hope that Darling, Schlesinger, will finally establish him where he belongs -- in the very first rank of the younger directors.
Esquire Magazine
Dwight MacDonald
An interesting failure: all the parts work, but somehow they don't make a whole.
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
...a time-capsule curiosity that thoroughly squanders a fine performance from its talented star.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
A rather constipated and badly dated Brit New Wave social satire film.
Video-Reviewmaster.com
Steve Crum
Julie Christie is must-see in Oscar winning performance.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
A transitional work between the British "Kitchen Sink" realism and the more stylized works of siwnging London, Schlesinger's film has not aged particularly well, but Julie Christie is beautiful and captivating as the immoral and amoral heroine.
Vogue
Pauline Kael
Darling is as empty of meaning and mind as the empty life it's exposing.
Las Vegas Review-Journal
Carol Cling
Christie's Oscar-winning portrayal hasn't aged a bit, even if the movie's swinging '60s milieu has.
MovieMartyr.com
Jeremy Heilman
As sporadically decent as Darling is as a soap opera, and as accomplished, if unlikable, as the performances are, there's no escaping that it's a movie that achieves little of the intellectual importance that it shoots for.
Goatdog's Movies
Michael W. Phillips, Jr.
If not for Christie's brilliant performance, I would say that this isn't much above a movie of the week.
