Caleb asks for Jane's phone number but she refuses and catches a ferry back to her hotel room.

Jane goes back to her hotel room and husband the following morning where he scolds her for allowing him to worry about her, especially when she claims she was just walking all night.

[3] The film was shot in color but director Coiro and her cinematographer ultimately wanted it to be shown in black and white.

The film had a successful festival run in black and white but Coiro ultimately decided to release the movie in color so as not to limit her potential audience.

[6] Stephen Holden of The New York Times wrote "The marital crisis at the [film's] heart has lost its allegorical weight.

[9] He also praised lead actress, Kate Bosworth, calling her "committed", but also stating that "there's ultimately no real role for her to play-like her male co-stars", adding that "she's simply stuck embodying a series of cliched poses".

[9] Wes Greene of Slant Magazine gave And While We Were Here one star out of four and compared the film to another romantic drama, Voyage to Italy by Roberto Rossellini.

[10] While attending Tribeca Film Festival, Frank Scheck of The Hollywood Reporter said that "unfortunately, this tale of an illicit romance between an unhappily married woman and a younger man traffics in far too many genre clichs, beginning with its idyllic locale".

[11] According to John Anderson of Variety, "Between the architectural pillars of Renaissance Italy and Kate Bosworth, helmer Kat Coiro hangs a gossamer tale of ruined love and liberation with While We Were Here.
