The Hours - UK/USA (2002), directed by Stephen Daldry, from a screenplay by David Hare, based on the novel by Michael Cunningham. The Hours interweaves three stories about a critical day in the lives of Virginia Woolf (Nicole Kidman) as she struggles to write her esteemed 1925 novel Mrs. Dalloway, unhappy 1950s housewife Laura Brown (Julianne Moore) who finds solace in Woolf's book, and Clarissa Vaughan (Meryl Streep) a 2001 incarnation of Mrs Dalloway. Music score by Philip Glass. The film won two Golden Globes, picked up 11 BAFTA nominations (wining Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role for Nicole Kidman, and the Award for Film Music for Philip Glass), and nine Oscar nominations, with Nicole Kidman winning the Oscar for 'Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role'.
