Plus Vanessa Redgrave, Toni Collette, Glenn Close, Meryl Streep and Natasha Richardson ... so there.  Thanks for the trailer.

When I read the original summer movies story including Evening's release date, I figured the distributor was dropping it in summer because it hadn't worked out. Then your trailer posting blew me away... I thought it was like a law that grown-up films with this level of talent had to be released after October when the Academy's voters' long term memory deficits wouldn't be so challenged.

I'd go see Patrick Wilson read the collected jeremiads of Jerry Falwell if you promised he'd have his shirt off and he'd occasionally look up and smile. And after his work with Kate Winslet in Little Children, to see him playing off consumately talented women. Whoa, Nelly! I'll be the first in line when it opens in PDX.

that this movie is awesome. if a movie is really good i don't care if it's 8 hours long. keep me engaged. tell me a great story. i don't get to/go to movies much in the theaters (the last three movies i saw in the theater were MY SUMMER OF LOVE, CRASH, and VOLVER if that gives you any idea) because it's so expensive and often disappointing and especially given the uber-violent/torture fare offered (and blogged about by dorothy snarker on afterellen.com). but i'm a big dvd renter, seems less of a disappointment, plus the rental place near me is independently owned and very foreign, independent, and gay friendly. i would be willing to try to see this one in theaters.
