Have you watched The Hours? What are your thoughts on it?
Hi chicks with accents! Enjoyed listening to The Hours main discussion, a film that’s in my top 100, I liked your comments on the ending. Nice idea to play the Philip Glass soundtrack as background music(like in the film)
Hi Chris! Glad you liked our discussion on the film and on its ending.
We tried something new with the music so thanks for noticing 🙂
