Jamaica Inn

A gripping adaptation of the Daphne Du Maurier novel, JAMAICA INN is the story of a teenage orphaned girl who goes to live with relatives on the Cornish Moors and finds herself involved in a violent smuggling scheme. The Cornish seacoast and the moors is the background for Charles Laughton, a villainous squire who leads a pack of smugglers falsely luring boats to the area. The boats crash on the rocks, killing the passengers and allowing the smugglers to loot the cargo. An undercover investigator arrives from Lloyds of London to gather information on the truth behind the multiple shipwrecks, and O’Hara finds herself having to take a stance and help him from being hung by the evil pirates.

Easy Virtue

A young woman, Larita Filton (Isabel Jeans), becomes "the notorious Mrs. Filton" when a young artist in love with her commits suicide and she ends up divorcing her drunkard husband. Life looks like it is taking a turn for the better when she meets John Whittaker in the south of France. John, the scion of a respectable family, marries her without being aware of her past, but his mother soon learns of Larita’s tainted background and schemes to break up the marriage and uncover Larita’s disreputable secrets. An adaptation of the successful play by Noel Coward, this was Hitchcock’s last film for Gainsborough Studios before his move to British International Pictures.
