Three generations of women, linked by one book. In 1923, Virginia Woolf (Nicole Kidman, Eyes Wide Shut) works on her novel Mrs. Dalloway while battling depression. In 1951, housewife Laura (Julianne Moore, Short Cuts) reads Woolf's book as she reckons with the emptiness of her suburban life; fifty years later, New Yorker Clarissa (Meryl Streep, Mamma Mia) nurses a dying friend, one who's nicknamed her Mrs. Dalloway.
Adapted by playwright David Hare from Michael Cunningham's Pulitzer Prize winning novel, The Hours was nominated for nine Academy Awards®, including Best Picture, and won for Kidman's transformative turn. A true classic about the power of art, and what it means.
