Post film Q&A with Dr Claire Nicholson, Chair of the Virginia Woolf Society

This ravishing and witty spectacle invades the mind through eyes that are dazzled without ever being anesthetised.” Vincent Canby, New York Times

Sally Potter’s 1992 film, already regarded as a classic of British cinema, stars Tilda Swinton in a clever, visually-arresting adaptation of Virginia Woolf’s 1928 novel. Restored in 4K and re-released in 2022 to mark its 30th anniversary.

Rarely have source material, director, and leading actress been more in alignment.” Matthew Connolly, Slant Magazine
