Review of The Hours

The Hours (2002)
Just Sit Back and Listen
4 April 2003
My best advice to you is to watch this film with an open mind, a steady heart, and a willingness not to over-analyze it to the ground.

With all its artistic and literate attributes, I still think that the role of Virginia Woolf should have gone to a truly homely actress, but then isn't that what acting is all about: making us believe that Nicole Kidman is a frumpy poet instead of a statuesque siren.

Everyone involved in this dramatic trilogy is fantastic, and you don't have to be a woman to understand its full potential either. My mouth dropped slightly twice, proving to myself that there's still intelligent life out there in screenwriting land.
