“The Hours” Here
in this film we can find three women: Virginia Woolf ( the writer) Clarissa ( a publisher) and Laura (the mother). The characters are from different chronological time, but they are linked in the
movie for the love, happiness, tragedies,
Sadness, loneliness, suicide and lesbianism which are developed all along the
movie and Mrs. Dalloway (Virginia Woolf’s book). The movie try to tell us why
we make a decision to live or die?.
Woolf’s struggle with mental illness led her to
commit suicide, every scene is colored by the knowledge that she will
ultimately decide to take her own life. She is so
sensitive to the world around her and unusually receptive to small details of
her environment, which she believes have incredible significance. Her
sensitivity makes her a great writer.
Laura Brown feels surprised by the direction of her life has taken. She thinks that she should
be happy, because her husband is kind, her son loves her, and they live in a
nice home. Laura feels that something is wrong with her but tries to convince
herself that she is normal. Laura attempted suicide. Like many women
of her generation, married young and has the roles of wife and mother at a
relatively young age.
Clarissa takes great pleasure in the day-to-day
details of life, she questions the choices that she has made and has doubts
about what her life has come to. Nostalgia for her love .She loves the small
domestic details of her life, and she enjoys the simple acts of buying flowers
and keeping a beautiful apartment.
