Negative Positive
Title: Excellent adaptation
Review: Virginia Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway can seem difficult to the modern reader with its stream of consciousness-styled narrative and minute attention to detail. This film adaptation will prove very useful to the student attempting to make sense of the meandering scenes flashing between past and present, sanity and insanity. Wonderfully cast with Vanessa Redgrave as Clarissa Dalloway, Rupert Graves as Septimus Warren-Smith, and Michael Kitchen as Peter Walsh, the vagaries of the multi-layered story become colorful and clear. True to Woolf's inimitable text, this adaptation is not only lucid but enjoyable.
