Catherine Morland, Felicity Jones, a seventeen-year-old with a tomboyish streak and a vivid love for Gothic novels, travels to Bath at the invitation of family friends—the Allens, with Mrs Allen played by Sylvestra Le Touzel. This new world feels alive and dramatic to her, and she steps into its social whirl with wide eyes and a ready imagination.
