Classic Gothic Romance-Drama: Rebecca

Date of Review:  Jul 8, 2001
The Bottom Line: 1940's Rebecca, Hitchcock's first Hollywood directing effort, is one of the great movie suspense-dramas of all time.
Review: Adapted from the book by Daphne du Maurier, the film Rebecca was the first American film project for Alfred Hitchcock. David O. Selznick, who had previously produced the classic Gone with the Wind, also produced Rebecca. After an exhaustive search...

Lean N Mean III: This time it's Alfred Hitchcock - Rebecca (1940)

Date of Review:  Nov 18, 2004
The Bottom Line: Rebecca gonna getcha good.
Review: One great thing about my grandmother is that every time we go to visit her, she tells me to help myself to anything... and when I laid eyes upon her collection of movies, I about drooled like a kid on Christmas Eve. One such movie I absolutely knew...

Alfred Hitchcock's -Rebecca- 1940-The Criterion Collection

Date of Review:  Jun 28, 2002
The Bottom Line: This a fascinating movie, based on Du Maurier's novel, but with the print of the master, turning a melodramatic plot into a masterpiece of suspense and psychological terror.
Review: Long discussed as the first film Alfred Hitchcock made in Hollywood, as well as the beginning of the legendary conflict between Selznick and Hitchcock, this movie is in the end, best remembered as a magnificent film, worthy of every Academy Award it...

Rebecca (1940) Movie Review: Hitchcock's Only Oscar Winner

Date of Review:  Feb 17, 2009
The Bottom Line:

Rebecca is not a typical Hitchcock movie but the only one that won an Oscar. Takes a great dramatic screenplay and uses his own creativity to bring it to life.

Review: Released in 1940, Rebecca was Alfred Hitchcock’s first Hollywood movie and his only movie to win the Oscar for Best Picture. It was nominated for 11 Oscars on all, with George Barnes also winning for Best Cinematography. And it was one of...

Rebecca - An Early Hitchcock Masterpiece

Date of Review:  Aug 12, 2009
The Bottom Line: Rebecca is one of Hitchcock's earlier masterpieces that still holds up well.  Fans of his movies will probably like it.
Review: I have enjoyed several Hitchcock movies over the years.  I have picked up more of his earlier movies on DVD in the last several months and have started to watch some of them.  I just watched Rebecca for the first time.

Rebecca (1940)

Date of Review:  Oct 19, 2001
The Bottom Line: This film is essential viewing for students of Alfred Hitchcock. A great film combining romance and mystery that won the Oscar for Best Picture.
Review: In 1940, David O. Selznick was still basking in the enormous commercial and critical success of his Gone With the Wind. The producer's next project was nearly as successful, another box office sensation that would win Best Picture in addition to...

The Moose Hole - Making Violent Love Behind a Palm Tree

Date of Review:  Mar 21, 2006
The Bottom Line: Rebecca is flawed and it is agonizingly long but surprisingly when you reach the end you?ll be more satisfied with it then you were an hour into it, guaranteed
Review: It is hard to imagine that the only film from director Alfred Hitchcock's comprehensive filmography to receive an Academy Award for Best Picture was the one project with the least 'Hitchcockian' mannerisms for which he is world renowned for today,...

It?s Boring. Deal.

Date of Review:  Mar 3, 2009
The Bottom Line: Not abysmal, but it’s simply not good. Performances, character, and story fail to arouse any interest. But hey, I’m in the minority on this one. I’m right, though.
Review: Naive, somewhat bumbling young Joan Fontaine falls for somewhat prickly British nobleman Maxim de Winter (Laurence Olivier), and quickly moves in with and marries him. She spends the rest of the film living (in the family estate dubbed Manderley)...

Emphasis On Mood Over Character Or Plot Drags Down "Rebecca:"The Ultimate Tale Of Second-Wife Syndrome!

Date of Review:  Sep 14, 2009
The Bottom Line: Alfred Hitchcock's Best Picture winner "Rebecca" is very much a classic 18th Century English Gothic tale modernized and brought to screen with more attention to mood than plot.
Review: Sometimes, I manage to forget how much I know or how much I've experienced until I experience it again. For example, I forget about the classic 18th Century English Gothic novel tradition until I encounter something that utilizes that format. I...

the child bride of love: Olivier and Fontaine in Hitchcock's Rebecca

Date of Review:  Feb 27, 2001
The Bottom Line: One of Hitchcock's top ten, a must see by any measure.
Review: Keats based his entire canon on the search for the immortal beloved ? the shining ideal that, once attained, becomes something considerably more mundane (Madonna/w-hore), but, clearly, the desire for what can never be had is something that is a...
