Jahrmarkt der Eitelkeiten (Originaltitel: Becky Sharp) ist ein US-amerikanischer Historienfilm aus dem Jahr 1935, der auf Teilen des Romans Jahrmarkt der Eitelkeit von William Makepeace Thackeray basiert. Es ist der erste abendfüllende Spielfilm, der komplett im neuentwickelten 3-Farben- Technicolor gedreht wurde. Die Hauptrolle der Antiheldin Becky Sharp spielt Miriam Hopkins unter der Regie von Rouben Mamoulian. Der Film war ein finanzieller Reinfall und löste entgegen den Hoffnungen der Produzenten keinen Boom des Farbfilms aus.
