Jamaica InnAlfred Hitchcock, 1939 Film DescriptionHitchcock's parting shot before leaving for Hollywood is the least known of his three Daphne du Maurier screen adaptations. Laughton acted as co-producer as well as star and dominates the proceedings as the larger than life, unctuous squire Sir Humphrey Pengaltan. A classic gothic tale of Cornish skullduggery, smugglers and coming-of-age, with a then unknown Maureen O'Hara as the young heroine staying with her aunt at Jamaica Inn, which doubles as an HQ for a shady ring of pirates. Great fun. ReviewsShare your thoughts - write a review By Chris Jones on 5th April 2005 Not Hitch's best but still very entertaining & rarely shown
