Individual moments are not without their felicitous touches -- mainly due to the cast, which is rich to the point of improbability.

For all the creaminess of the sets and costumes, every character talks as if she is still made out of written words, not flesh, and each woman's struggles feel about as important as a tea dance.
What a cast but what a disappointment.
For all of its class-act bona fides, Evening lurches between the morose and the sentimental, with occasional incursions into the absurd.
There are few things more depressing than a weeper that doesn't make you weep.
Doesn't seem as if it would translate easily to the big screen. It hasn't.
