An Angel at My Table is a 1990 New Zealand film directed by Jane Campion. It is a dramatisation of the autobiographies of New Zealand author Janet Frame. The film is divided into three sections, as Frame's autobiographies form a trilogy, and Frame is played by three different actresses at different stages of her life: Karen Fergusson (child), Alexia Keogh (adolescent) and Kerry Fox (adult).
