Rebecca evaluation action

It is not easy for the film to reach the height of the original and Hitchcock edition in 1938, but it cannot be used to justify its failure. The look and feel of the whole movie is close to a collection of ins beautiful pictures. The Gothic Mandley, which can also be regarded as the incarnation of Rebecca, has become an idyllic and idyllic holiday villa. The bright and bright tones weaken the suspenseful color. For the plot and the discussion of emotion and gender behind the plot, the film seems to have no intention of delving into it. It is a pity that the new or more interpretations that the precipitation of time can bring to the classics did not happen in this "Rebecca" 80 years later, especially a female work with "ulterior motives" was put on again. The era of turbulent gender issues-just by relying on the end of the movie, the rewriting of Mrs. Danvers's love with Rebecca is far from enough

Rebecca quotes

Mrs. Van Hopper:
Show me an eligible bachelor and I'll show you a room full of women acting like they've lost their minds.

[first lines]
Mrs. de Winter:
[narrating]
Last night I dreamt I went to Manderley again. I dreamt that where our drive once lay, a dark and tortured jungle grew. Nature had come into her own and yet the house still stood. Manderley. Secretive and silent as it had always been. Risen from the dead. Like all dreamers, I was allowed to pass through my memory. Spanning the years like a bridge. Back to that summer in Monte Carlo when I knew nothing and had no prospects.
