The Hours (DVD)

Nicole Kidman delivers an Oscar-winning performance as author Virginia Woolf in this poignant tale of three women bound through time by a common thread. In 1929, Woolf battles mental illness as she begins her novel "Mrs. Dalloway." Two decades later, a suburban housewife (Julianne Moore) finds solace from her dreary life in Woolf's book. And a present-day literary editor (Meryl Streep) is a contemporary Dalloway, coping with mortality as she plans a party for an AIDS-stricken writer. With Ed Harris, Claire Danes. 114 min.
