Emma-Esque
By Jeffrey M. Anderson Buy Cold Comfort Farm on DVD
Director John Schlesinger turns in arguably his finest film after Billy Liar and Midnight Cowboy with this sweet, sprightly made-for-British-TV comedy starring Kate Beckinsale as an Emma-like soul who changes the life of everyone she touches. Ian McKellen is particularly effective as a weird preacher. "I saw something nasty in the woodshed!"
