- Synopsis:
Marleen Gorris, the Oscar-winning director of Antonia's Line, brings to life Virginia Woolf's groundbreaking 1925 novel, which itself inspired Michael Cunningham's Pulitzer Prize-winning book 'The Hours', now filmed by Stephen Daldry. Vanessa Redgrave plays Clarissa Dalloway, an MP's wife, whose life is thrown into crisis when a lover she rejected 30 years ago makes an unexpected appearance at a party she is hosting at her elegant London home, prompting bittersweet memories of her youth. Beautifully filmed in period London and featuring an outstanding cast including Natascha McElhone and Rupert Graves, Mrs. Dalloway perfectly captures Virginia Woolf's concerns about choice, truth and destiny. - Actors:
