Info
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 yeamings and thier fears. Virginia Woolf, in a suburb of London in the early 1920's, is batting insanity as she begins to write her first great novel, "Mrs. Dalloway". Laura Brown, a wife and mother in Los Angeles at the end of World War Two, is reading "Mrs. Dalloway", and finding it so revelatory that she begins to consider making a devastating change in her life. Clarissa Vaughan, a contemporary version of Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway, lives in New York City today, and is in love with her friend Richard, a brilliant poet who is dying of AIDS. Their stories intertwine, and finally come together in a surprising, transcendent moment of shared recongnition.
