Watching Holbrook, I was reminded again of how steady and valuable this man has been throughout his career.

As lovely as it is to see the veteran actor Holbrook working his craft as the lead actor in this Southern-fried drama, it's not enough to lift the movie from its sodden melodramatic roots.

There is a predictability to the story, but that's OK. The acting is superb, Holbrook in particular, making That Evening Sun an understated pleasure.

Holbrook's steely performance makes the film worth seeing.
