Anne Rice's The Feast of All Saints Showtime November 11, 12--8 p.m./On Showtime Women (satellite), November 13/On Showtime 3 (satellite), November 16/On Showtime 2 (satellite), November 17 Despite a pretentious title and an incongruously fresh-scrubbed sheen, Anne Rice's The Feast of All Saints manages to score, especially with some unintentionally funny dialogue ("It was e-e-e-ville what I did"). Based on Anne Rice's novel about "free people of color" in 1840s New Orleans, the miniseries concerns Marcel (Robert Ri'chard, doing a mean Cuba Gooding Jr., left, with Bianca Lawson) and his sister Marie (Nicole Lyn) and their horrific transition into adulthood. Self-consciously earnest performances from an ensemble of largely interchangeable, blandly attractive actors make the story--which is interesting, if overwrought--difficult to follow. It deserves better: sets look like sets, costumes look like costumes, complexions look like makeup. Even the random risqué moments disappoint with a soft-porn approach. Luckily, Peter Gallagher is in on the joke; he practically tears down sets to get at the scenery. Eartha Kitt is creepily credible in a Gollum-like performance, hissing "pretty girl" instead of "my precious." In the end, it's not bad enough to be campy, but it’s bad enough for some laughs.
