Lady Norah Bennett. Twenty-One. Amanda Seyfried
The youngest daughter of the Bennett family, the younger sister of Lady Isobel Bennett, whom she adores, and elder sister of a little brother she dotes on, their heir to the Bennett fortune.
She's aware of her family's financial situation and is trying to do her best to help out. She knows she is expected to marry well, but is determined that it'll be for love too.
Admires her sister Isobel's strength of character and beauty, despite being more petted by their parents, she has always felt little and silly compared to Isobel, and wishes she were more like her.
Through the War years, she wished to be a nurse, but was too young, so instead made herself useful making tea and writing letters and reading for the soldiers, as well as helping to organise charity concerts and balls to raise moral and knitting enough socks and scarves to clothe a battalion.
Norah is often told to get her head out of the clouds, she likes everything in life to be just lovely, like something out of a book. Even though she likes real life to be lovely, she's also got a thing for sensational novels and adores poetry. The war poets make her sad.
Sometimes, she feels all the young men she once danced with are dead, and she'd be particularly sorry if she never sees a young Frederick Mathers again.
