Feat. Vanessa Redgrave, Natascha McElhone, Rupert Graves

Aroview: Light adaptation of Virginia Woolf's 20s novel about a serene society lady in late-life crisis, reflecting on her choices some thirty years earlier.

Within a flashback structure, Vanessa Redgrave and Natasha McElhone alternate as incarnations of Mrs. Dalloway, with Rupert Graves as a shell-shocked war hero also among the uniformly cogent performances.
