Rebecca

Rebecca is an ageless, timeless adult movie about a woman who marries a widower but fears she lives in the shadow of her predecessor. This was Hitchcock’s first American feature, and it garnered the Best Picture statue at the 1941 Academy Awards. In today’s films, most twists and surprises are ridiculous or just gratuitous, so it’s sobering to look back on this film everywhere every revelation not only shocks, but makes organic sense with the tale line. Laurence Olivier is dashing and weak, fierce and cowed. Joan Fontaine is strong yet submissive, defiant yet accommodating. There isn’t a fake moment or misstep, but the film must have killed the employment outlook of any women named Danvers for about 20 being. Brilliant stuff. –Keith Simanton
