Plot Summary
After two years on a chain gang, Homer Hobbs (Tyson Beckford of BIKER BOYZ, INTO THE BLUE) returns home during the depths of the Great Depression. There are no jobs and no prospects, and his only source of hope is the kinship he forms with four strangers. Each Sunday night they piece together their finest attire to compete in an unusual contest. The winner goes home with not only a five dollar prize, but something priceless: the chance to feel like a king, if just for an evening.

Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: Well-meaning, well made and all but allergic to subtlety.
Fresh: Kings of the Evening is a warm, beguiling picture boasting an array of splendid portrayals
Fresh: A sweet tale well suited to the holiday season.
Fresh: An intrusive musical score and periodic fades to black, as for commercials, make this feel as if it were made for TV, but otherwise it's exceptional, from script and performances to production design.
