The Evening Song (2020)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

There are only three important things in life for saxophone player Kelvin: music, his mother and his best friend. At sixty, his life suddenly loses meaning after his mother and best friend pass away one after the other. Once a self-proclaimed loner, he now finds the solitude unbearable and worrisome. Things change when a newly divorced lounge singer Qiling starts working in the same bar. Kelvin’s heart is reignited knowing Qiling shares the same passion for oldies. When love comes knocking at the door, Kelvin finds himself ready to play an evening song.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
