In the 1946 film Martita Hunt played Miss Havisham. I really like the fluffy grey white hairstyle she has as it is what could be expected of it to look like from not going outside in so long. She portrays Miss Havisham in a less quirky way compared to the recent adaptations as I feel she is just an old woman in a wedding dress playing games through out the film. I wouldn't expect her type of Miss Havisham to be self harming herself as she was in the BBC series. Her makeup is quite plain and not at all grotesque as it could be.
Margaret Leighton plays the 1974 film version of Miss Havisham. I think the makeup looks alot more in depth than the 1947 version as she looks worn out and almost qhostly in this grey to white complexion. I like how the style of hair is short and in the shape of a backcombed fluffy white bob. I keep thinking that I'll need to buy extensions to create my look but I don't think there will be any need when a short style like this looks perfectly suitable.
Joan Hickson played the 1981 film version of Miss Havisham. She is portrayed as a very old woman but her complexion is quite a normal colour instead of looking grey and worn out. Her hairstyle is more reserved compared to the last two styles of Miss Havisham. I haven't seen this film but I'd hope that her got more and more disheveled throughout the film as it did in the BBC series.
