    Synopsis:
    In England in the early 1930's, 20 year old Flora Poste, recently orphaned and left with only 100 pounds a year, goes to stay with distant relatives on Cold Comfort Farm. Everyone on the gloomy farm is completely around the twist, but Flora tries to sort everything out...

    About Kate's role & her screentime
    Kate plays Flora Poste, the movie's main character. She has a lot of screentime and is in nearly every scene.

    Trivia
  • Kate attempted to score the part of Flora Poste in a BBC production of Cold Comfort Farm. Considered too young for the role, she revealed her acumen and ambition by writing to director John Schlesinger, asking to try out for him again when they were both in Paris. She achieved her goal and, having left university early in the spring of 1994, found herself filming alongside Ian McKellan and Rufus Sewell by late summer. Cold Comfort Farm was the BBC's standard-bearer on New Year's Day, 1995 but, more importantly, when released to American art cinemas the next year, it was an underground smash, grossing $5 million and forcing a UK cinema release in 1997."
