Meryl Streep, Julianne Moore and Nicole Kidman star in 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.
This beautiful adaptation of Michael Cunningham"s award winning novel features three powerful female leads. The most talked about is probably that of Nicole Kidman, who carries off the role of troubled author Virginia Woolf with expertly crafted emotion.
The story switches between Virginia Woolf"s English backdrop, 1950s American Suburbia and a 2001 New York, with actors Juliet Stevenson and Meryl Streep fitting comfortably into their period roles. As a whole, this is an intelligent take on Woolf"s novel, Mrs Dalloway, with each female lead having a connection with the book. The tone of the film hints at unseen, repressed reckless emotion, helped by one of the most wonderful film scores I have ever heard, courtesy of composer Philip Glass.
