Luise Rainer (Düsseldorf, 12. januara 1910. – London, 30. decembra 2014.),^[2] njemačka filmska glumica. Poznata po nadimku "Bečka suza", odnosno kao prva žena koja je osvojila dva "Oscaraa", odnosno prva osoba koja je osvojila dva "Oscara" zaredom.

Karijera joj je počela u Njemačkoj kada ju je u dobi od 16 godina angažirao ugledni kazališni režiser Max Reinhardt. Nakon nekoliko godina je postala jednom od najeminentnijih glumica njegove kazališne trupe, prije nego što su je agenti studija MGM pronašli i sa njom potpisali trogodišnji ugovor temeljem koga je došla u Hollywood 1935. Mnogi tadašnji sineasti su pretpostavljali da će postati druga Greta Garbo, odnosno zamijeniti tadašnju glavnu MGM-jevu zvijezdu.

Nakon uloge u filmu Escapade (1935) je slijedila ona u muzičko-biografskom filmu The Great Ziegfeld (1936), koji je, usprkos relativno kratkom nastupu, toliko impresionirao publiku da je dobila Oscar za glavnu žensku ulogu i dobila nadimak "Bečka suza".^[3] Sljedeće godine ju je producent Irving Thalberg, usprkos protivljenja studija, angažirao za ulogu kineske seljanke u The Good Earth, adaptaciji istoimenog romana Pearl Buck. I za tu se uslogu ispostavilo da je uspješna, te je dobila još jednog "Oscara".^[4]

Međutim, nakon takvih uspjeha je slijedio brzi sunovrat karijere, te nakon niza nevažnih uloga njen ugovor nije obnovljen, te se Rainer vratila u Evropu. Neki to tumače lošim savjetima njenog tadašnjeg muža, dramatičara Clifforda Odetsa,^[5] odnosno iznenadnoj smrti Thalberga, koji je bio njen mentor i zaštitnik. Često se smatra jednim od najdrastičnijih primjera tzv. "oskarovske kletve", odnosno fenomena glumačke karijere koja propada nakon dobijanja "Oscara".^[6]
