This movie looks absolutely amazing. An incredible cast, looks like it will be visually stunning, and great writing.

I CANNOT wait for this movie!

Seriously, I cannot get over this cast! So many talented actors, and all are theater actors as well. It is so exciting!

According to the New York Observer there's a special sneak preview on June 12th:

"Further north, at the Film Society of Lincoln Center, authors Michael Cunningham and Susan Minot (former 1980’s and 1990’s hot-Manhattan-babe fiction writer, current hot-single-mom-lives-in-Maine fiction writer) will take the stage for a discussion of their screenwriting partnership adapting Ms. Minot’s book, Evening, plus a sneak preview of the film. It packs a crazy cast full of awesome women, including Claire Danes, Meryl Streep, Glenn Close, Natasha Richardson and Vanessa Redgrave. Our Big-Cheese Editor says, “When I saw La Streep in her first big picture, Julia, in 1978, she blew Jane Fonda and Vanessa Redgrave off the screen. I wept buckets into my popcorn tub.”
