Rating: - A Crucial Memory That Will Orgnaize The Fragments Of A Life

'Parked uneasily between sensitive indie and studio chick flick, Lajos Koltai's Evening makes star-studded hash of Susan Minot's beautifully written, if emotionally constricted, novel about a terminally ill woman trying to wrestle meaning out of the shards of her memories. Floating in and out of delirium in her Cambridge, Massachusetts, home, Ann Lord -- a former singer, twice married to men she didn't fully love and vice versa -- is cared for by her two daughters, played in the movie by the ...

Rating: - What a shame, it had so much potential!
This film had the potential to be really good. Instead it was sadly disjointed and a typical all star cast film! Too much rave about it's all star instead of focusing on making the film flow.
