	Media	Author	Review
		Telegraph	"De Niro and Streep repeat the chemistry they first showed in the 'Deer Hunter'. They were born to act together."
		Vincent Canby The New York Times	"'Falling in Love' is not a bad movie by any means. It's not stupid or gross or cheap. It's been done with taste, but it's the sort of production that, even when it works, which it frequently does, seems too small and trite"
		Jack Kroll Newsweek	"The Streep-De Niro show is bringing back the sizzle and savor of the golden age of movie couples"
		TV Guide	"The basic flaw in 'Falling in Love', however, is that no one in the film--including the lovers--seems to be in love."
		Bill Cosford Miami Herald	"'Falling in Love' isn't consistently dull; it's funny in spots (...) But the shift from not meeting to meeting does not generate much drama."
