About This Movie

Evening News (2019) is a slice-of-life film that captures the complexity of familial bonds with a blend of humor and heartbreak. The pacing feels natural, almost like eavesdropping on a real family gathering, which makes the emotional moments hit even harder. The performances from the three sisters are raw and relatable, each bringing their own quirks and baggage to the table. The way they interact with their grandmother, who’s losing her grip on reality, creates a subtle tension that drives the narrative. It’s not flashy, but the understated practical effects, like the fading memories depicted visually, add depth. The film really digs into themes of memory, loss, and resilience without going over the top.
