Edit
Trivia Mrs. Bates and Miss Bates, mother and daughter in the film, are played by real-life mother and daughter Phyllida Law and Sophie Thompson (who are also real-life mother and sister to Academy-Award-winning actress and screenwriter Emma Thompson). Thompson revealed that it was a coincidence that she and her mother were cast alongside each other, as the casting director had their names on separate lists. See more »
