Which Academy Award-winning film had an unsuccessful sequel titled “The Evening Star”?
Dances with Wolves
Driving Miss Daisy
Kramer vs. Kramer
Terms of Endearment
Correct Answer: Terms of Endearment
Fact: The Evening Star is the 1996 sequel to the Academy Award-winning 1983 film Terms of Endearment starring Shirley MacLaine. The film won five Oscars, including Best Picture and followed the complex relationship between a mother and daughter, resonating deeply with audiences and critics alike. However, its 1996 sequel, The Evening Star, which continued the story of Aurora Greenway (played again by Shirley MacLaine), failed to capture the same magic. Despite featuring some returning cast members, the film received negative reviews and was a box office disappointment.
