During her
time in the business, Laura has amassed a large number of
acting credits. Starting with the low budget, critically
acclaimed 'Small Faces', made while she was still
studying, to blockbusters such as the international
success of 'A Knights Tale' where she became widely
recognised, Laura has demonstrated versatility in her
roles and refuses to be typecast. She has had bit parts
in movies ('Girl in Bed' with Leonardo de Caprio in 'Man
in the Iron Mask'), through leading roles ('Virtual
Sexuality', Coney Island Baby', 'Devils Gate'), and
ensemble casts ('Titus', 'He Knew He Was Right'). She can
float effortlessly between independent & big budget
films, and TV genres from fantasy, costume drama and
police shows.

single parent father and his two sons. Clive Owen stars
in the film. The film has now screened at several

thriller and also stars Richard E Grant and Tamsin Grieg.
It is written and directed by Richard Bracewell.
Post-production is nearing completion, and an expected

Polly is a fed-up medical researcher, with a wild rock
star boyfriend (Adam Fenton), a jealous younger sister
(Antonia Bernath) and an over interested boss (Richard E
Grant). Polly has a chance to escape with a new job, but
then things start to go a little odd. The noises start
late at night. Polly is alone, she thinks she's losing
her mind - no one else seems to hear. Polly's sure she's
not crazy, but why won't the noises go away?
