A regular in French and European productions since the mid-80s, Kristin captivated worldwide audiences as the distant yet vulnerable Fiona in the 1994 film, Four Weddings and a Funeral, which also starred Hugh Grant and Andie MacDowell. She's done it again, this time as leading lady Katharine Clifton in The English Patient, wherein she and Ralph Fiennes succeed in bringing back the romantic epic in grand style.
