The Hours (2002) – 5/5
This movie broke my heart into a million pieces. I bawled for a while at the end.
This movie was not only clever and original, but truly powerful emotionally. I completely bought into it and went along all the way. It was painful to watch, but so good.
Mo was asking me what it was about and there’s no way I cd describe it. I think it might be able 3 women who chose life over death, but only a life they cd bear – not a true life, just not death.
If nothing else, this movie tells a very sad story (or stories) and does it amazingly well which is amazingly hard to do.
SPOILERS:
Showing the son’s life and his adult life simultaneously had an incredible effect. Finding out who he was later allowed me to see him for the lost child he was.
