director Riddlehoover's measured and earnest documentary; Together, Riddlehoover and the four Cash-Liberto daughters give her the dignity of reminding the world that hers, tragically as it ended, was a love story too
an engaging and revelatory film that's also deeply affecting; "My Darling Vivian relates a little-known love story, great in its own right; And it offers a nuanced portrait, loving but not fawning, of a complex woman
a compelling story, an American romantic fairy tale; This is a long-overdue must-see that sets the record straight for a woman whose whole life was glossed over in favor of a more camera-ready tabloid romance. There is great value to be found here
