ANGELIKA’S NOTE

Director Stephen Daldry and screenwriter David Hare adapt Michael Cunningham's novel into "a boldly realized, affecting work" (Time Out) that packs an emotional wallop. Nicole Kidman earned an Academy Award for her performance as Virginia Woolf, and co-stars Julianne Moore and Meryl Streep proove their performances equally as unforgettable. THE HOURS is the story of three women searching for more potent, meaningful lives. Each is alive at a different time and place, all are linked by their yearnings and their fears. Their stories intertwine, and finally come together in a surprising, transcendent moment of shared recognition.

SYNOPSIS

The story of how the novel “Mrs. Dalloway” affects three generations of women, all of whom, in one way or another, have had to deal with suicide in their lives.
