Jamaica Inn (1939) ALFRED HITCHCOCK 

Hitchcock expressed his disappointment with the film even before it was finished, stating that it was a "completely absurd" idea.

Introducing Maureen O’Hara? Fantastic

Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX. May the Sauce be with you 🍕🍕🍕

One wonders if the building still exists ey ! bomb proof almost.

SHE'S SPECtacular!! I love her so! Thrilled to know she's in this..its just starting for me. Thanks for the comment, Michael Hoey.

She chose to live in Cork though 😀

Yummmy and I agree ! Man I could go for a couple of em right now .

Please don't come back we are full .me heartys. 😂

Thank you for sharing your lovely memories and do say hello to the Lady of the house for me. May you both make many more happy memories together. 🙂

You mean the BOOK was inspired by duMaurier's stay at the inn !

It still exists?

Same here.

That fat little gaylord was spot on

2 more of his that I love are "Young And Innocent" and "The 39 Steps". Also "The Lodger" is superb.

The author of Jamaica Inn, Daphne DuMaurier actually HATED what Hitchcock did to her novel in this film adaption. He reportedly would not discuss the making of his version with DuMaurier in any way whatsoever. Usually authors are given the chance to be involved with screenplay and production, but not here. He did the same when he turned her book The Birds into a film in 1952 starring his favourite actress Tippi Hedren. He damn near drove her bonkers during his films. Hitchcock was a notoriously selfish man and thought of nothing more than making others suffer for what he wanted. He was a genuinely great director and film maker though. I love this film, the book and I’ve been to Jamaica Inn many times. It’s nothing like in the film of course, but the atmosphere is there. There’s no where quite like Dartmoor.

I Really Like Her!! Forever .

And America great actress Style and grace some thing ur born with

She was easily one of the 2 most beautiful women of the 20th century.

Agreed 👍

Any day

that's because pirates own it ...sorry couldn't help it

Begad what what😅

+mizu88KA One of her earliest appearences in a movie, only 19 at the time .

So young to play a D.I.D

Susan Hayward was also a classy red head January 20,2021

When he played Herod in a film he told the world the Script was not Biblical correct ...

"The Thirty Nine Steps" was actually released in 1935. Another one of my Hitchcock favourites from this time is "The Lady Vanishes" Which was released in October 1938, Seven months before "Jamaica Inn".

You take it in the.but don't you?

Rebecca was her best novel and my favorite film☺

"Birds" amongst them.

I haven't read the book... please tell me how this differs from it. Very curious!

Lol

Hi beautiful

I love this black an white too

Yes no comparison at all, the sound on the new one was inaudible.

Tyrants..Still wicked and cruel..nowadays.¥ Godless.¥

Paul, - cruel times don't make for cruelty; cruelty is always a function of the same thing - not 'bad times' in any Era,- it's people and it's always been people. 'EVIL' are not hard times, - Evil is not misfortune or your upbringing, - EVIL isn't the devil, it's not bad luck, it's not poverty - it's no affliction of life or the world 'out-there'. EVIL is one single cause - it's PEOPLE ! Take responsibility.

I was just thinking that most of the actors in this 1939 film were born before 1919, so if they were alive they would be a 100

This was her first film as Maureen O'Hara her previous film had her billed under her real name of Maureen Fitzsimmons.....M Fallen Sparrow 1943

The ship's are sailing from the port of Falmouth on a regular basis. The Cornwall men in the gang wait for a storm to hit then hide the light which then causes a shipwreck.

Plot Development

I can't believe you are still alive!
