"That Evening Sun gets at something essential about man's sense of his own dignity and the importance to the American notion of self that comes with the possession of a property of one's own." - Andrew Schenker

The film loses energy in the last ten minutes or so, but it features a superb Holbrook performance, is well directed, smells like real Tennessee farm country and refuses the temptation of simplifying a complicated emotional narrative into easily identifiable heroes and villains. Corbin and Wasikowska are very good too.

Beautiful, thoughtful, understated. Hal Holbrook is fantastic, and given excellent support by the ensemble cast. Everyone is exceptionally good, but I feel compelled to single out Walton Goggins, who--given almost nothing to work with--manages to suggest some sympathetic depths to a very unsympathetic and poorly fleshed-out character.
