Albatross

Jessica Brown-Findlay is on roll right now playing willful young girls determined to get their own way.  Fresh off ‘Downtown Abbey’ where as Lady Sybil she gets to run off with the handsome family chauffer, she’s now playing Emelia a very stylish wayward and somewhat wild 17 year-old budding wordsmith trying to ‘find herself’ in a small provincial seaside resort on England’s South Coast. To make ends meet she gets a job cleaning in a rather sorry-looking cliffside Guest House that is run by a disjointed middle-aged marred couple.  Jonathan the husband spends all day up in the attic looking at a blank computer screen as he struggles to replicate the success of the one novel he wrote long ago, whilst Joa his bitter wife is constantly angry with him (and indeed the world at large) because she was forced to give her rather mediocre acting career to play hotelier.
