During the day of her... This is the critically-acclaimed adaptation of the Virginia Woolf novel of the same name. It's a lovely summer day and Clarissa Dalloway is preparing for an elaborate party. During the day of her party, she remembers another summer in the past, when she was a beautiful, vivacious and much-courted young woman. Her preparations are interrupted however, by the unexpected arrival of a former suitor from that long-ago summer - a once-dashing man she thought she would marry but ultimately rejected. As the day of the party unfolds, Mrs. Dalloway's life also becomes strangely intertwined with a young man she never meets, but whose tragic fate strikes a chord of truth, deep in her soul, that she cannot deny.

Vividly conveys the message of Woolf's novel- despite social and psychological differences, we are all connected.

The film never rises above the dull, comforting worthiness of a 'Masterpiece Theatre' production

So caught up in being reserved and proper that [it] fails to show us any emotion at all.

Gorris has met the challenge of Woolf's style, translating it into motion-picture terms with a surprising degree of success.
