Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaEvelyn paraphrases a line from William Shakespeare's Richard III. It is from his opening soliloquy, which begins "Now is the winter of our discontent," and continues to "And therefore, since I cannot prove a lover; To entertain these fair well-spoken days, I am determined to prove a villain; And hate the idle pleasures of these days."

Featured review
Stars Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin in a wry black comedy/drama about secrets and revenge.
Fonda arrives in California for the funeral of an old college friend and sees the dead woman's husband which brings on bad memories of something (but we don't know what). Tomlin lives in a home and attends the same funeral and also has a bad reaction to seeing the husband (Malcolm McDowell). While Tomlin and Fonda renew their old friendship, the secrets start to emerge, and after Tomlin blurts out a big one at the wake it becomes obvious that they have a common enemy in McDowell.
While not laugh-out-loud funny, it's an amusing film and the chemistry between the stars is great. Richard Roundtree also appears as another old friend with a secret.
Ultimately, the film is about old wrongs, lost opportunities, and maybe even a little forgiveness before it's too late.
