Description by OLDIES.com:
Produced in 1932, this adaptation of William Makepeace Thackeray's biting 19th century literary masterpiece was the first sound version after four silent Vanity Fair productions. Two years after her dark portrayal of Becky Sharp, Hollywood beauty Myrna Loy appeared in her most famous and beloved role - that of witty sophisticate, Nora Charles, in The Thin Man, opposite William Powell. By 1936, her popularity was such that she was named "Queen of the Movies" in a nationwide poll.

Movie Lovers' Ratings & Reviews:
Based on 380 ratings.
This movie, "Vanity Fair" is most enjoyable. Myrna Loy is interesting to watch early in her career. At times Myrna Loy seems to lapse into silent screen acting using her eyes and gesturing in a way common to the silent screen genre. The visual scenes of this movie are sometimes dark and forboding, which are part of the movie-making techniques of that time, and I think add to the subject matter of the character, Becky Smart (Myrna Loy), who is lacking moral judgment.
