Shirley Henderson in The Way We Live Now (2001).
This is a really underappreciated mini-series. Well made with great characters and good performances. Matthew Macfadyen is hilarious.
Half-mexican Paloma Baeza is stunning and excellent as Hetta Carbury. I focused on taking screenshots of Shirley Henderson though because I'm a little obsessed with her at the moment.
Follow this link to a collection of screenshots that I contributed to IMDB of Shirley Henderson in various roles across her 37 year career.
She well knew the great architectural secret of decorating her constructions, and never condescended to construct a decoration.

Minimo sindacale
To have her meals, and her daily walk, and her fill of novels, and to be left alone, was all that she asked of the gods.
Tutto quello che chiedeva agli dèi era avere i suoi pasti, la passeggiata quotidiana, la sua dose di romanzi ed essere lasciata in pace.
