We have included this film in our program to illustrate the work and contributions of Shirley Mason, a star of Silent Hall of Fame.
"Vanity Fair" is a historical drama, based on the classic English novel written by William Thackeray. Shirley Mason was 15 y.o. and played the role of the young Becky Sharp. Directors obviously took notice of her performance, because two years later she appeared in 17 feature films, in many of them playing the star role.
