The performances are endearing, especially from the leads, who manage to make the script shine despite its oddities.

Forever, Darling has seen a bit of a resurgence among collectors, especially those interested in classic 50s cinema. The film was released on various formats, including VHS and DVD, but the scarcity of original theatrical posters and early editions makes it quite appealing for dedicated collectors.
