Virginia Woolf was born in London, as the daughter of Julia Jackson Duckworth, a member of the Duckworth publishing family, and Leslie Stephen, a literary critic, a friend of Meredith, Henry James, Tennyson, Matthew Arnold and George Eliot, and the founder of the Dictionary of National Biography.
Virginia Woolf's concern with feminist thematics are dominant in A ROOM OF ONE'S OWN (1929), which deals with the obstacles and prejudices that have hindered women writers, and explores in the last chapter the possibility of an androgynous mind.
Characteristic for Woolf's essays are dialogic nature of style and continual questioning of opinion - her reader is often directly addressed, in a conversational tone, and her rejection of an authoritative voice links her essays to the tradition of Montaigne.

 Whos Afraid Of Virginia Woolf? [1966] :: Master Gadgets
Comment: Edward Albee's "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" is one of the most important plays in the history of American Drama, representing a sort of merging of the psychological drama represented by Tennessee Williams and Arthur Miller with the existential plays of Samuel Becket and Eugene Ionesco.
Among the most successful theatrical adaptations (artistically and popularly) ever brought to the screen, the entire principal cast of Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf was nominated for Oscars--and Taylor, Dennis and cinematographer Wexler won.
But I think this is something that bothers people who have studied the play intimately more than fans of the cinema.

In the 1966 movie of Edward Albee’s 'Whos Afraid of Virginia Woolf?', Elizabeth Taylor played Martha, the menopausal daughter of a New England college president who subjects her professor husband George and a younger faculty couple to a macabre evening of games like “Humiliate the Host” and “Get the Guest”.
The combatants are George and Martha, the eternally sparring married couple at the heart of Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, which has just re-opened at the Longacre in a mostly knock-out revival.

 Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (1966)
The film's title refers to Virginia Woolf (1882-1941), an influential British feminist writer who pioneered the 'stream of consciousness' literary style while examining the psychological and emotional motives of her characters.
Disturbed because she always "springs things" on him, she makes light-hearted fun of his reaction, acting both loving and vicious toward him, singing to the tune of "Mulberry Bush" (or "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf" from Disney's animation short "The Three Little Pigs"):
...who's married to the President's daughter, who's expected to be somebody, not just a nobody, a bookworm who's so god-damn complacent that he can't make anything out of himself, that doesn't have the guts to make anybody proud of him.

 Amazon.ca: Whos Afraid Of Virginia Woolf? [Soundtrack]: Music
The title of this film is derived from the classic childhood rhyme, "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?" and is used to illustrate the immaturity of the characters and the fright of confrontation.
The dialogues are pregnant of crude realism, the horror, the multiple facets of a woman who has kept in silence so many dissapointments, the countless consequences as result of a poor comunication, the anguish of her about knowing and being the axis of the relationship.
"Woolf" is an emotional roller-coaster of a film.

Virginia Woolf is known for modernist experimentation: her novels rely on "stream of consciousness" techniques and generally challenge the reader's concepts of narrative.
At the same time, her essays offer a glimpse into a feminist politics, and her letters and diaries have generated a cult following: her image is one of the most reproduced (on t-shirts, coffee mugs, postcards) of any writer.

 Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? DVD
Sensing the material in "Virginia Woolf" marked so drastic a departure from the usual screen fare that his stock directors might be at a loss as to how the material should be handled, Warner rather took the risk of setting the untried Nichols free to mount the movie as he saw fit.
"Virginia Woolf" altered both the mentality and the conventions of legitimate drama and when, only four years later, the play was transferred to the screen, almost everyone assumed it would have to be hopelessly watered down since movies were at the very least ten years behind Broadway in terms of maturity.
"Virginia Woolf" created a strong public outcry for more stringent censorship of films, simultaneously excited and upset various portions of the movie-going public, and forever left behind the notion that American films could not deal with adult material.
