A lovely romance should everyone see. Both Cooper and Hepburn at thier best, they both give us much than anyone could expect, in the other hand we should thanks Billy Bider for his fascinating ideas like the gypsey band for example... Full review

Love in the Afternoon was conceived and brought to the screen by Billy Wilder as a homage to his friend and mentor in Hollywood, Ernest Lubitsch. This French novel Ariane had been filmed before in fact, by the Germans just... Full review
There is likely no more romantic ending to a Hollywood movie than the one in this soufflé-light 1957 romantic comedy, where Audrey Hepburn tries to keep up with a departing train upon which Gary Cooper stands and listens intently to... Full review
A Movie that works with a miscast lead!

This has always has been my all time favorite romantic comedy. Thanks to Billy Wilder's creative genius this film works despite Gary Cooper being miscast as the leading man. Regrettably, Gary Cooper was not only too old, but lacked the... Full review
An Unusual Combination Held Together By Hepburn & Wilder

Snow Leopard - imdb.com
This odd combination of story, characters, and cast could easily have fallen apart irretrievably in the first few minutes. That it holds together is due primarily to Audrey Hepburn's unsurpassed charm and Billy Wilder's resourceful story-telling technique. It ends up... Full review

The first time and only time Billy Wilder and Gary Cooper worked together, and the second time Wilder worked with Audrey Hepburn after 1954's Sabrina. I liked this film much better than Sabrina, which i thought was sort of overrated... Full review

Love in the Afternoon is a late 50s Wilder classic. At least semi-classic. The story is about a French girl who falls in love with a swinger from Paris. The girl is Audrey Hepburn and the man is Gary Cooper.... Full review
Great 'Coop'; Beguiling Hepburn

The first thing I noticed about this lilting romance (on the widescreen DVD) was the beautiful, shimmering, black and white photography. Set in Paris, with some scenes filmed there, Director Billy Wilder weaves a captivating, simple tale of a 20ish... Full review

I am not a fan of romantic movies but there are a small handful that I love and by far the one I love most (of the less bigger scale types like "Gone With the Wind") is "Love in the... Full review

DVD Talk
Love in the Afternoon has not aged well at all in the forty years since its 1957 release, with the film as a whole suffering from a lack of context for its story. The film depends too heavily on the viewer making the correct assumptions, so that when considered by itself as a story, Love in the Afternoon falls flat. ... Full Review
