Mrs. Dalloway
1997 · Movie · 100 min. · United Kingdom
Vanessa Redgrave (Howard's End) plays Clarissa Dalloway, an MP's wife, whose life is thrown into crisis when a lover she rejected 30 years ago makes an unexpected appearance at a party she is hosting at her elegant London home, prompting bittersweet memories of her youth. Marleen Gorris, the Oscar winning director of 'Antonia s Line', brings to life Virginia Woolf's groundbreaking 1925 novel, which itself inspired Michael Cunningham's Pulitzer Prize-winning book, 'The Hours'. Beautifully filmed in period London and featuring an outstanding cast including Natascha McElhone (Solaris) and Rupert Graves (A Room with a View), MRS DALLOWAY perfectly captures Virginia Woolf's concerns about choice, truth and destiny.
