Mr. Shavelson's quips are fast, contemporary and polished to a bright slickness but his story is obvious and thin and his principals belabor the obvious to little avail.

Reviews for A New Kind of Love
The fourth onscreen teaming of Paul Newman and his wife Joanne Woodward is a thin, lame comedy, written and directed by Shavelson, which doesn't befit the caliber of their talents.
men are from Mars, women are from Venus, and writer-director Melville Shavelson is from Neptune
Some sharp lines of dialog, a few too many camera tricks, and a general feeling of going-through-the-motions.
