    Evening

    by orangevalesweetpea

    WOW...what a sweeping, nostalgic, incredible movie that was. My wife and I went with another couple, and by 1/4 of the way into it, we were ALL crying. Trust me when I say that anyone who has had an experience like the one in this movie, will be absolutely stunned. It was like someone had told MY life story from a guys point of view, except *I* was Buddy. I highly recomend it to anyone who has loved and lost someone they loved and didnt grab when they had the chance. Go, and enjoy the escapism, and walk away like we all did, with Anne's words ringing..."There are no mistakes"

    See it for yourself!

    by FANtabulous

    People will see this movie differently depending on where they are in their lives. I read the reviews here before seeing it, and frankly didn't go with high expectations based on the reviews. BUT...it wasn't slow, it wasn't depressing, and most importantly it is not about DEATH...it's about LIFE! It is thought-provoking, and when a movie still has me thinking about it many hours later, that means it was a success and I most definitely got my money's worth!

  • Spending a couple of hours in the simplicity of greatness

    by theatre2

    This is not a movie that is action paced, full of suspense, or twisting plots. It is a movie of actually being in the moment and how in the end of our lives the realiztion comes of how deeply the simple moments matter . The characters watch and struggle through this process with their dying mother as they all come to understand the importance of those little moments they actually shared and experienced together. How stopping to really be in the here and now matters instead of worrying about the next thing on the list or "why did I do that yesterday?" This is a quiet, intuitive, thought provoking film that is probably not for everyone. But for those who understand the value of a simple life and the question of "did I do enough?" those people will be touched by this film.
