Jamaica Inn

(1939)

CHAAADWIIIICK??!!

Hitch teams up with dynamo actor Charles Laughton for a tale of piracy, lies, and corruption. The stage actor is riveting, even if the film has its flaws, and apparently he and Alfred had a hard time working together. There’s a lot to like with Jamaica Inn! More than we expected. And certainly lots to criticize. We discuss it all.
