Josefina Molina – Función de noche AKA Night Function (1981)
In Josefina Molina’s ”Evening Performance,” two people whose long marriage is being annulled meet to discuss the situation and then proceed to talk it to death. She says: ”The children have become a burden to me – a wonderful burden, but a burden.” He says: ”I say that love can exist at first sight.” She says: ”I’ve done nothing for myself. I’ve done it all for others.” And a fortune teller, who also figures briefly in the proceedings, declares: ”Marriage always leaves its mark on the children.”
The man and the woman are Lola Herrera and Daniel Dicenta, two Spanish actors who married in 1960, separated in 1967, and in 1980 legalized their separation. Their conversation takes place in Miss Herrera’s dressing room in a Madrid theater, and it has a documentary flavor as it drones on and on. Both Miss Herrera and Mr. Dicenta, who filmed while conducting such candid conversations, speak in serious, measured tones much less animated than any they might attempt on stage. The importance of the situation undoubtedly explains this but doesn’t change the talky, becalmed feeling of Miss Molina’s film. The audience finds itself listening in on a personal but not notably spontaneous or intimate conversation and probably learning little it doesn’t already know.
