The Hours

Another movie, I'm proud to introduce, one of my favorite -The Hours, directed by Stephen Dardly. The movie that was nominated: Academy Awards for Best Picture (Scott Rudin and Robert Fox), Best Actor in a Supporting Role (Ed Harris), Best Actress in a Supporting Role (Julienne Moore), Best Director (Stephen Daldry), Best Writing/Adapted Screenplay (David Hare), Best Costume Design (Ann Roth), Best Film Editing (Peter Boyle) , Best Music/Original Score (Philip Glass) and the winner for the Best Actress in a Leading Role by Nicole Kidman and this is only Academy nominations ,there are many more prestige nominations and awards that would take a long time to mention all of them. In my memories from 11 years ago when I got stuck watching live stream of the 75'th Academy Award ceremony in the middle of the night al and I was hoping that this movie could win a lot of Oscras . It was the time when many good movies were nominated. I was very proud of Nicole Kidman when she receive her first Oscar for the Best Actress in a leading role, she really deserve it. She got so deep into the character that you could hardly say that was Nicole.

The Hours- it's a story about three women life's:
Virginia Woolf (Nicole Kidman) 1923, she was writing her last novel 'Mrs. Dalloway. She lived in her imagination world, isolated from everybody, suffering from being locked in her house, guarded by servants, far away from London. 

Laura Brown (Julianne Moore) 1951, she was in her second pregnancy. It seamed Laura had everything to be happy: husband, who adored her, son, who couldn't be without her, expecting for one more family member, but deep inside she was not. Laura wanted to commit a suicide, but she wasn't brave enough to kill her self and the fetus she was caring, so she decided to wait till the baby comes to this wold and after disappear.

Clarissa Vaughan (Meryl Streep) lives in 2001, she was planning a very special party to her best friend who just won an award for his poem,  it was also very special to her because this person meant a lot. Clarissa lived in partnership with her girlfriend Sally (Allison Janney),she always had strong feelings for her best friend Richard (Ed Harris), but it was always a mystery to discoverewhat kind feeling was that. 
Three women living in a different time but related to each other: one was a writer, second -the reader and the third one was who lived the story.

The best trio: Nicole Kidman, Meryl Streep and Julian Moore, three talented and strong actress in one beautiful biography story about famous writer Virginia Woolf. Also staring: Ed Harris, Toni Collette, Claire Danes, Jeff Daniels, Allison Janney and John C. Reilly.

I find something incredibly deep and interesting about this movie,with a lot of psychological mistress.

Hope you enjoy,as I did
