Used by Deborah Moggach for her acclaimed recent adaptation of The Pursuit of Love and Love in a Cold Climate, this is a rare view of the real-life Nancy Mitford. In the same way his brother William, a painter, captured his subjects Harold Acton her recreates the laughs that made her friends love her and forgive her wicked sense of humour.
