The Hours

Continued from page 9

with his outbursts of frustration at his wife's inability to get better are heartrendingly real. Dillane's performance here is a real revelation and while Harris is getting all the supporting actor nods thus far, it will be a shame if Dillane is not recognized for his brilliant work here.

there's the three
