Writer Gertrude Stein (Linda Bassett) and Alice B. Toklas (Linda Hunt) are seen as they might have been in 1930s France.

Stein and Toklas, this ain’t. And whoever the players are, they aren’t very engaging.

''Waiting for the Moon'' drifts lazily, with the camera taking long rests on the faces of the principals.

With excellent supporting performances by Bernadette Lafont, Jacques Boudet, Bruce McGill, and Andrew McCarthy, and outstanding music. by Michael Sahl, Waiting for the Moon is clearly a labor of love for all involved.

Highly textured exploration of some of the ways in which women love and help one another.

Almost contemptuous of fact, this unconvincing lesbian romance opts for a soft, amorphous approach in depicting the elationship between the writer-emigre Gertrude Stein and longtime companion Alice B. Toklas.

There is too much premature reverence in this film. The filmmakers have convinced themselves of the worthiness of these two characters -- but they've forgotten to convince the viewers.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars
