01/05/2008 | It is easy to see how this gem of a film rates at the number one slot on this list. This was the beginning of some great things for Hitchcock, he was well deserving of the Academy Award.

08/23/2007 | Excellent romantic melodrama. Fontaine is superb and should have one the Oscar over Ginger Rogers in the overrated Kitty Foyle.

08/23/2007 | Not a typical Hitchcock movie it is a true classic. Great directing, acting, etc. One of my wife's favorite movies. I have a cheap version on DVD and a really good Critereon version which is well worth the extra cash if you want to own this movie.

05/03/2006 | Superb, stellar performances by Joan Fontaine and Judith Anderson. Faithful adaptation of the novel. Great movie with all the dark and shadowy effects needed for the story. Once seen, it is unforgettable and you will watch it repeatedly. I give it a 5.

05/01/2005 | This is a perfect picture. If ever there was a perfect cast, it is in this film. They make the film come alive. A David O. Selnick film which, in my opinion, is his greatest acheivement and Alfred Hitchcock's American directorial debut is an auspicious one! Joan Fontaine deserved Best Actress Oscar for her performance as the Second Mrs. deWinter as did Judith Anderson for Best Supporting Actress for her Mrs. Danvers.

11/14/2002 | One of Hitchcock's best. This won Best Picture the year it came out. Joan Fontaine plays the woman who marries Laurence Olivier, a man who was once married to a lady named Rebecca. Fontaine is constantly haunted by the many reminders of Rebecca in the mansion called Mandalay. Judith Anderson is awesome as Miss Danvers, the housemaid who adored the late Rebecca. (She later became Dame Judith Anderson, and actually portrayed the Vulcan High Priestess in Star Trek III: The Search For Spock).

05/24/2002 | Sometimes, the vision of the producer and the vision of the director don't really match too well. Sometime they do. In the case of "Rebecca," the contributions of both Selznick and Hitchcock serve to benefit the film as a whole. I don't consider this to be a "Hitchcock picture" in the context of his techniques and methods. Rather, it is a film that he just happened to direct, like "Rope" of "Spellbound." "Rebecca" is a case in which too many chefs combined to make something fantastic. Although not the best film, it is enjoyable and warrants praise.

10/13/2001 | Although David Selznick's constant interferrance didn't help allow Hitchcock to make the film they way he wanted it, REBECCA is certainly a good film. Good enough , it seems, for the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to call it the best picture of 1940. Olivier, Fontaine and Anderson give great performances in this, one of the more "commercially" suspenseful films of Hitchcock's career.

07/01/2001 | You MUST see this beautiful movie. Don't believe it is an Hitchcock one, because in fact it was a Selznick production, but it is quite faithful to the original book by Daphné Du Maurier, and the mystery is delicately exposed to our eyes . With wonderful Olivier and Fontaine . Don't miss it!
