Full Plot Details

Set against the background of the Battle of Waterloo, Becky Sharp is the story of Vanity Fair by Thackeray. Becky and Amelia are girls at school together, but Becky is from a "show biz" family, or in other words, very low class. Becky manages to insinuate herself in Amelia's family and gets to know all their friends. From this possibly auspicious- beginning, she manages to ruin her own life, becoming sick, broke, and lonely, and also ruins the lives of many other "loved ones". In the movie we get to see the class distinctions in England at the time, and get a sense of what it was like for the English military at the time of the Napoleonic wars.

Movie Reviews

EmanuelLevy.Com - 6/10 by Emanuel LevyMamoulian's film is best known for its innovative use of three-color Technicolor, but in the title role, Miriam Hopkins gives a strong, Oscar-nominated performance.
User Review - 10/10 by Graceann MMiriam Hopkins is beyond naughty in this adaptation of Vanity Fair. The writing is tight and very funny, and Rouben Mamoulian's direction is beyond compare. This is the first three-strip technicolor feature film released in the United States, and Mamoulian freely explored the sumptuous colours. He did not spare the performances and story in order to give our eyes a treat, however, and this film is a gem from beginning to end.
User Review - 8/10 by Amanda MI really didn't think this movie was as bad as everyone says it is. Yes, the plot is a little strange because it's such a highly condensed adaptation but Miriam Hopkins is great as Becky and I generally enjoyed it. And the color - oh the color. A restored print is the only way to see it.
User Review - 8/10 by John BHmm...absolutely no reviews. It is a difficult film to see but it is worth taking a look. One of the better films of the thirties.
User Review - 6/10 by James HRather tedious version of Vanity Fair, but a significant film. It is the first film in Techniclor. Miriam Hopkins was nominated for best actress. She is good, perhaps overacts a tad, but for 1935....
User Review - 6/10 by Justin MBetter than the Reese Witherspoon version of "Vanity Fair," I have to say.
User Review - 4/10 by Les EVanity Fair is such a complex story with so many relationship issues that 90 minutes could never do it justice. This movie tried to cover it all and missed everyhting. Also the first attempts at colour now look dreadful.
User Review - 4/10 by Amanda CThis is a film that is only remembered for its contribution to colour cinematography. Without that link it would have long since have disappeared into obscurity. The script is pedestrian and the plot is plodding. The actors try to breathe some life into this film, but fall horribly short. Becky Sharp is fully dominated by colour with the palette taking all of the attention and focus, not just of the viewer, but also of the filmmakers, negating all other substance of the film.
User Review - 4/10 by Joe Loh dear. it was the first feature length film to be shot in three strip technicolor.. as a film, it's not well regarded, but there are some good reasons to see it: 1) it reminds you that no era was ever immune to producing crap. 2) it's a terrific example of how a bad actress in the lead can utterly destroy a film. 3) the costumes are.. bright.
