It is set for tomorrow, Tuesday, evening in San Diego, California. The film by CBS News producer Bruce Spiegel, was eight years in the making. It has screened in New Orleans, in Hammond, Louisiana, where Evans went to college at Southeastern University, and at the Atlanta Film Festival, where it won a Golden Spotlight Award.<\/p>\n<p>In the 90-minute documentary, musicians, family members and friends remember Evans\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s precocious musical development, his emergence as a major jazz figure and the tragedy of the addictions that shortened his life. Sequences of Evans playing connect the interview segments and provide continuity. Among those who tell parts of his story are drummers Paul Motian, Jack DeJohnette and Joe LaBarbera; guitarist Jim Hall; bassist Marc Johnson, trombonist Bob Brookmeyer; singer Tony Bennett and pianists Warren Bernhardt and Billy Taylor. Bill\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s niece Debby, the inspiration for \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Waltz For Debby,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d provides insights into the profound influence of her father, Harry, on his younger brother. LaBarbera and Laurie Verchomin, who was Evans\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s companion in his final year, give an account of the wild ride to a hospital in an attempt to save his life. Here is a trailer for the film.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/sPY2R1ZRxO4?rel=0\" width=\"480\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Tomorrow evening\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s showing of <em>Time Remembered <\/em>will be at 6:00 p.m. at the Saville Theatre on the campus of City College in San Diego.
