Nova Pilbeam
Nova Margery Pilbeam (15 November 1919 – 17 July 2015) was a British film and stage actress. She played leading roles in two Alfred Hitchcock movies of the 1930s. She made her last film in 1948.
==Career==
Pilbeam was born in Wimbledon, London. Her parents were Arnold Pilbeam, an actor and theatre manager, and Margery Stopher Pilbeam.
Pilbeam gained attention as a child stage actress. This led to much work in her teen years, appearing in Alfred Hitchcock's film ''The Man Who Knew Too Much'' (1934), in which she is abducted by Peter Lorre's character, followed by her lead performance as Lady Jane Grey in ''Tudor Rose'' (1935). Pilbeam had a starring role in Hitchcock's ''Young and Innocent'' (1937), which she regarded as "the sunniest film I was involved with", forming a constructive professional relationship with Hitchcock.〔
In 1939 she appeared on an early British television drama. That year, David O. Selznick wanted Pilbeam for the lead in Hitchcock's ''Rebecca'' (1940) and thought she could be an international film star. However, her agent was worried about the length of a five-year contract and meanwhile Hitchcock, whose outlook on the film was not the same as Selznick's, auditioned hundreds of others over many months, at last giving the role to Joan Fontaine.〔 Unlike some of her peers, Pilbeam never made a film in Hollywood. She carried on with appearances in at least nine British films along with many stage roles throughout the 1940s. One of Pilbeam's last films was ''The Three Weird Sisters'' (1948), its post-war Gothic-drama screenplay credited to five writers, among them Dylan Thomas. She continued working on stage for a short while longer, appearing at the Duchess Theatre in Toni Block's play ''Flowers for the Living'' in February 1950.
