During this day, each of them makes a decision that will affect the rest of their life. ![]() The film follows a single day in the lives of three women in different time periods.

"The Hours" is not a regular Hollywood type of drama film. ![]() Starring three of today's most popular leading actresses, winner of some Golden Globe awards, based on a Pulitzer Prize winning novel, and the recipient of numerous rave reviews it would seem to be a film that would appeal to a lot of people. If you have read any of the other reviews on this page, you have probably figured out "The Hours" is not the easy, mainstream film it was made out to be by the ads and the reviews. ![]()
