For those who doesn't know, she has African-American ancestry on her mother's side. From a Guardian interview: "I think in any family that has a legacy of passing, it’s very tricky, because, sadly, you inherit all of the shame and none of the pride"

[helmutschmitt]

One of the most under estimated actresses out there. Her looks are unique and gorgeous. She brings dignity to any role she plays.

Rebecca's American accent is so good that I never would have guessed she was British. From what I've seen of her work so far, she's become one of my new favorites in a short time.

I highly recommend "Passing". The choice to film in black and white was truly brilliant. Everything became illuminated in shadows and the seasons were flowed in black and white unison. It all made the passing not just the focal point. Life was happening; death was hiding in plain sight. I want to watch again because I don't know what I saw on the last scene on the balcony. I say Oscar nomination is a must. The sad part is lazy people that think black and white doesn't bring anything to the screen. You must observe the lighting that tells the story.

I loved the story that Passing shared and I love that you share these stories in such a brilliant way. Repping the best of your Britishness 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[jeromethomas]

REBECCA IS A GIRL I USED TO KNOW IN PRE SCHOOL

[ericminch]

Oh, um, sorry, were there actually *three* people there? And did they talk about something? I got distracted.

[Delboy]

I saw Passing and first I was shocked that it was made by a white person. Then shocked it was made by actress Rebecca Hall who comes from a very privileged background and this was her first directed film! With truth bombs about race in this movie! And I know it was based off a book but it takers a good director to capture the black experience without being Black. She has a big future in film and she is invited to the cook out 😂

[The_Isaiahnator]

She looks like a mixture of Aubrey Plaza and Mary Elizabeth Winstead.

[vokasimid]

Looks like Hillary Swank or Vanessa Kirby

[sweiland]

Most women look horrible with short hair. She is no exception.
