Latest on Evening
A weepie examination of female and sexual identity whose worth is roughly equal to that of a used Kleenex, Evening is a schmaltzy nostalgic fusion of clichéd melodrama and carpe-diem lessons about regret, love and courage. Based on Susan Minot's...

Your Reviews
Living close to all the filming sites, I was diaappointed at the tightness of the scenes in terms of surroundings -- and I got sort of hung-up on the mother-daughter real life relationships, especiall... y to find Meryl Streep showing up at the deathbed scene playing Lila, the role her real-life daughter played as the young bride and close friend of now-dying Ann -- in the early part of the story with Lila playing in scenes with Glenn Close as her mother, until my wife straightened me out, I thought the close (pardon) resemblance between Glenn Close and Lila was such that they were mother-daughter in actual life -- I think there was a good basis for this observation and that Lila's resemblance to Close is greater than that with Streep -- am I off base ?Tiverton RI Full Review
Most of us carry a secret that we take to our death....this one touched me very much. I thought that Ms. Redgrave was outstanding in this movie. I would see it again.
