Rating:  - Good English movie fun!
This movie was pure delight if you love (which I do!!) the subtlety of English humor.
Rating: - The Funniest Movie You will See in a Long Time
Written in the 1930's by Stella Gibbins, the book revolves around a young woman who is determined to have experiences in order to write about them in the novel she will write when she is 50. She likes things "tidy," which means that she interferes in everyone's lives, usually to their good.
She goes to live with strange relatives, who are each a parody of a type of person, and the result is hilarious. Great lines such as "I saw something nasty in the woodshed," and "Miss Poste, I am engorgingly in love with you," are what make this movie a scream. It is also very faithful to the book and will not ruin the book, should you watch this first.
Rating:  - Just OK
I love English movies, but the accents in this one are so thick, I believe I only understood half of what was being said--and there were no captions available on the DVD. So perhaps that is why, although it wasn't bad, I would just say this film was okay--nothing special.
Rating:  - Such fun!
The first time I watched Cold Comfort Farm, I could not fully appreciate the humor and comedy of it. The second time was pure pleasure. I recommend it to anyone who enjoys the British sense of style and humor.
Rating: - Charming movie
What a charming movie. A young Kate Beckinsale shines in this wonderful movie full of quirky characters. You'll want to visit Cold Comfort Farm!
