She discovered a new branch of her family tree... the one with all the nuts.

From Academy Award-winning director John Schlesinger comes a brilliantly witty film. Starring Kate Beckinsale (Pearl Harbor) as Flora Poste, a London society girl, and Joanna Lumley (Absolutely Fabulous) as Flora's friend and mentor, this heartwarming comedy is full of charm and clever satire. Kate Beckinsale (Underworld, Pearl Harbour) leads a star-studded cast as the tidy-minded heroine Flora Poste, in Malcolm Bradburys BAFTA-winning adaptation of Stella Gibbons comedy classic. When sensible, sophisticated Flora Poste is orphaned at nineteen, she decides her only choice is to descend upon relatives in deepest Sussex; the Starkadders at Cold Comfort Farm. Far from the refinement of 1930s London, the decidedly odd family are in need of organising, so who better than Flora to do it!
