Über dieses Produkt

Product Information

A string of classic suspense films produced in England had earned Alfred Hitchcock a reputation in the United States, and his first American production, REBECCA, cemented his fame. Based on the novel by Daphne du Maurier, REBECCA was conceived to rival producer David O. Selznick's previous epic, GONE WITH THE WIND. This psychological thriller, however, derives its grandeur from Hitchcock's careful cultivation of the title character's haunting legacy. Joan Fontaine takes the starring role and narrates the story of her life as the second Madam de Winter. Fontaine, young and innocent, meets the worldly and sophisticated Maxim de Winter (Laurence Olivier) while vacationing on the Riviera. After a whirlwind romance and marriage, the two return to his opulent English estate, Maderley, where Fontaine begins to realize she is not entirely welcome in her new role. Chief among her detractors is housekeeper Mrs. Danvers (Judith Anderson), who points out her every failing in relation to the previous mistress of the house, Rebecca. Fontaine is nearly driven to suicide by her inability to understand the mysterious legacy of the first wife. However, when a ship washes ashore, the mystery begins to unravel, setting the stage for the memorable and fiery climax.

  • Great Package for Hitchcock Fans

    This DVD release is a terrific addition to the connection of any fan of Alfred Hitchcock. The digitalization is very good, with both picture and sound of high quality. The added features are a welcome addition for anyone who wants to delve deeply into the details of the production. Of particular value is the examination of the relationship between Hitch and Selznick through the exchange of memos. Really, the best part of this release is the excellent commentary available during the viewing of the film. It provides insights into the filmmaking process that put this movie in context, both of its time in history and in the career of the director. This DVD is Highly Recommended.

  • Rebecca Still Rocks

    This is a great movie -- then and now. Daphne du Maurier's tale of a marriage haunted by the past is still engaging and well-acted. The bonus materials shed light on interesting information surrounding the film, as well as screen tests by those actresses considered for the role of "I."

  • A serious fantastic nail biting movie

    A bit dated but that is what makes it so good, not the typical Alfred Hitchcock. This version is full wide screen and the black and white makes it that much better. You "MUST" see this, a great classic. Sit back, get ready and make sure no interruptions!

The young wife must come to grips with the terrible secret of her handsome, cold husband, Max De Winter (Laurence Olivier).
