Watching Trivia

1. The original book I read when I was in elementary school, and what I can recall before watching the movie is the Manderley Manor in the dream in the first chapter, and Rebecca who lives in the people's meeting.

2. The change in the position of strength and weakness between Derwent and the heroine is very interesting. At the beginning, Derwent was absolutely strong. How to hook up with the little girl; when it happened, the heroine became stronger and became Derwent's spiritual support.

3. The heroine is not a little white rabbit. From lying and secretly traveling with Derwent, to rushing into Derwent's bedroom to say goodbye to him (with retreat as the advance), it can be seen that although the heroine has always been weak and trembling, she He is a very assertive person who dares to pursue what he wants.

4. The most attractive is Rebecca, the character who died as soon as she appeared, but lived into an eternal legend;

In the movies of the 1950s and 1950s, the heroine's clothing was still fashionable (although she was complained in the movie);

6. The gossip I just saw yesterday, Joan Fontaine and the actors of "Gone with the Wind" Melanie are sisters, both of them are Oscar queens, but their relationship is not good.

7. The last half hour is the most exciting, with many reversals. Although I have seen the ending in the book, I still feel hearty.

    Hahahahaha Isn't Rebecca in "Butterfly Dream" the Chun Yuan in "Zhen Huan"? In 1940, Kubrick designed a plot where the new couple was framed and put on the old clothes to provoke her husband's anger.

    One of my favorite Alfred Hitchcock works. . The adaptation is much better than the original. . Laurence Olivier is of course a regal gentleman. . Joan Fontaine is very suitable for the role of a commoner girl + sensitive and suspicious~~

Rebecca quotes

  • Mrs. Danvers: [brings out a negligee from under the bedcovers] Did you ever see anything so delicate?

    [motions the second Mrs. de Winter over]

    Mrs. Danvers: Look, you can see my hand through it!

  • Mrs. Danvers: [just as the second Mrs. de Winter reaches for the door] You wouldn't think she'd been gone so long, would you? Sometimes, when I walk along the corridor, I fancy I hear her just behind me. That quick light step, I couldn't mistake it anywhere. It's not only in this room, it's in all the rooms in the house. I can almost hear it now.

    [turns to the petrified second Mrs. de Winter]

    Mrs. Danvers: Do you think the dead come back and watch the living?

    The Second Mrs. de Winter: [sobbing] N-no, I don't believe it.

    Mrs. Danvers: Sometimes, I wonder if she doesn't come back here to Manderley, to watch you and Mr. de Winter together. You look tired. Why don't you stay here a while and rest, and listen to the sea? It's so soothing. Listen to it.

    [turning away towards the window as the second Mrs. de Winter slips out the door]

    Mrs. Danvers: Listen. Listen to the sea.
