6 Best Gladys Cooper Movies

By Vlad Zakh · March 4, 2026

Gladys Cooper brought a formidable, aristocratic presence to Hollywood, often playing imperious mothers whose disapproval hid real depths of feeling. My Fair Lady has a phonetics professor transforming a flower girl, Separate Tables confronts a seaside hotel’s private disappointments, The Song of Bernadette meets a teenager’s visions with devotion and scepticism, and The White Cliffs of Dover reflects on decades of love and loss in England. Rebecca and Now, Voyager round out the list.
