Flora Cross (born January 11, 1993) is an American actress. She played the lead role of Eliza in the 2005 film Bee Season, opposite Richard Gere, Juliette Binoche and Max Minghella. She auditioned for the part shortly before moving to Argentina, where she was living when offered the role. "My manager sent the tape in, and then I was called in for an audition that was very long and very tiring," recalls the actor. "It went on for five hours. Two weeks later I was told I got the part".[1] Despite the fact that she portrays a spelling bee champion, she claims to be a terrible speller.[1] Cross next played Ingrid in the film Margot at the Wedding, released in 2007.
Cross was born in Paris, France, the daughter of journalist Joseph Cross. Her mother left the family when Flora was six, and they have only seen each other once since. She has two brothers who are also actors, Harley Cross and Eli Marienthal. Cross is Jewish.[2][1]
