The Hours

Recently re-watched and was reminded how great this film is. Incredible acting. Kidman won the Oscar, and all 3 leads were flawless , but imo Julianne Moore did the heavy lifting and drove the emotion of the story. Stays very true to the novel. Highly recommended.

"if there is a choice between Richmond and death, i choose death" this a film that makes you feel deeply. the 1st time i watched it i couldn't understand it & i didn't enjoy it. the 2nd time i payed proper attention & let myself feel the uncomfortable, dark feelings.

What does it mean to regret when you have no choice…

They did an exceptional job portraying the tension between outer order and inner chaos, letting emotions convey through silence and gestures rather than dialogue. Small pauses, passing glances, and subtle shifts in body language speak louder than words, revealing what the characters cannot or will not say out loud. This style makes the emotional experience feel more intimate and honest, allowing the viewer to sense the tension beneath the surface without being told exactly what to feel.

A deep film about many emotionally heavy themes. The different time periods happening simultaneously might not work for everyone but I enjoyed that aspect the most. Definitely an introspective watch.
