Aphid said:
Protagonist Flora Post (Kate Beckinsale) regularly converses with all other characters. The cast includes Flora's friend Mary, and her relatives Judith Starkadder, Elphine, and the domineering Aunt Ada Doom, and the servant Meriam. Subjects include Flora's future, finances, and ambitions; laundry; various insane statements straight out of Gothic melodrama (the film is a parody); contraception; and whether seeing "something nasty in the woodshed" really matters.
