The Hours (2003-)

Movie Review

What do you call a movie that features brilliant performances by every actor no matter the size of the role, intelligent dialogue, and a compelling story with emotional depth? You call it "The Hours" and you justifiably label it with every accolade (even the clichéd ones) normally associated with an outstanding film.
Based on the critically acclaimed book "The Hours" by Michael Cunningham ("The Hours" was the original working title of Virginia Woolf's "Mrs. Dalloway"), the story follows three women living in three different eras whose lives are connected through time by Woolf's novel, "Mrs. Dalloway."
