About this product

Product Information

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!

  • Great Movie but DVD lacking in sound quality

    The movie has fantastic actors in it - a who's who of British living legends. The story is as eccentric as the place itself. A great escapism to humour and wit. The DVD quality is average. There is no option for Subtitles (English preferred for hearing impaired) and the quality of sound that has been transferred to the DVD is average. I can see now why digitally re-mastered can be a benefit.

  • Only the Brits can make comedy this good

    Fantastic telling of a fantastic book! Superb British humour, done the way only the Brits can do it. Wonderful casting (Rufus Sewell...yummm) - it's a who's who of British super talent. Simply a total joy to watch.
