Actress Miriam Hopkins had a long and successful movie career, appearing in many classics, including Trouble in Paradise and Design for Living. However, it is as this film's titular heroine that she received her only Academy Award best-actress nomination. Based upon Thackeray's novel Vanity Fair, Becky Sharp is the story of a socially ambitious woman and her destructive climb up the class system.
Becky Sharp merits historical note as the first feature-length film to utilize the three-strip Technicolor process, which, even today, gives the film a shimmering visual appeal. The lengthy, complicated restoration process of Becky Sharp by the UCLA Film and Television Archive marked one of the earliest archival restorations to garner widespread public attention.
Becky Sharp was added to the National Film Registry in 2019.
