Leonard Woolf's dash from the house in Richmond, leading up to the railway station scene took him through St. John's Churchyard and Sutton Place in Hackney, London (fourteen miles) to Loughborough (one hundred fourteen miles), all in the space of a minute of screentime. A ten second dash through Sutton Place took the best part of day's filming with several antique vehicles parked in the resident's parking bays; a handful of costumed pedestrians; plastic antique covers for concrete lamp posts, and lots of sticky black tape to cover door bells and other modern door furniture. As he races past, we see several Georgian houses with original, and quite rare sash window shutters. Sutton Place was a good choice as a uniform terrace of houses still bearing features of yesteryear.
The Hours
"The Hours" is the story of three women searching for more potent, meaningful lives. Each is alive at a different time and place, all are linked by their yearnings and their fears. Their stories intertwine, and finally come together in a surprising, transcendent moment of shared recognition.
