| The 1935 film Becky Sharp, based on the novel Vanity Fair by William Makepeace Thackeray, tells the story of a lower-class girl who insinuates herself into an upper class family, only to see her life and the lives of those around her destroyed. The ruthless, self-willed and beautiful Becky is one of the most famous characters in English literature. The movie was adapted by Francis Edward Faragoh from the play by Langdon Mitchell, which was adapted from the original novel. It was directed by Rouben Mamoulian and Lowell Sherman. It stars Miriam Hopkins, Frances Dee, Cedric Hardwicke, Billie Burke, Alison Skipworth, Nigel Bruce and Alan Mowbray. The movie was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actress (Miriam Hopkins). Lowell Sherman developed pneumonia early in filming, and had to leave the production. His replacement, Mamoulian, scrapped all of the original footage and started over. Becky Sharp was the first feature length film to use the three-strip Technicolor process. [ Visit the complete Wikipedia entry for Becky Sharp (film) ] Some related entries: J.
