Movie Reviews of Mrs. Dalloway
Movie Review: The movie that makes you read
Summary: 5 Stars
Virginia Woolf was introduced to me through "A Room of One's Own," in a Women's Studies class. It seemed dry and rather dated. It was not until I saw Mrs. Dalloway that I opened up to Woolf as a writer. This adaptation is so often true to the book, and more importantly, true to the intentions of the book, that I have become a huge fan of Woolf. (Still hate "Room," however.) Few movies are truly able to bring great literature to the masses while retaining the essence of the book and author. Mrs. Dalloway is that rare movie that forces non-Woolf fans to rush out and read all that she has written. As a lover of books, I recommend that every bibliophile and/or movie goer watch this. It rekindles great ideals and touched the heart of every person who watches the movie or reads the book.
Summary of Mrs. Dalloway
MRS. DALLOWAY - DVD MovieVanessa Redgrave glows from within as the heroine of this superb adaptation of Virginia Woolf's novel. As Clarissa Dalloway prepares to host a sumptuous party, her mind wanders back to a summer in her youth, when she was courted by an eager young man--a young man whose much older self will come to the very party she's preparing. Mrs. Dalloway moves fluidly between the past and the present, exploring the shifts in perspective and understanding with an unsentimental but graceful eye. What's most stunning is the remarkable interplay between the younger and older actors, who truly seem to be different versions of the same character (the young Clarissa is played by Natascha McElhone). Beautifully directed by Marleen Gorris (Antonia's Line), the movie also features Rupert Graves as a shell-shocked soldier who crosses Clarissa's path. --Bret Fetzer
