The first surprising thing about the film is that the title is the name of a character who has never been seen in the play-the actor Maxim’s ex-wife, while the heroine in the film does not have her own name, except for being called after marrying the actor. It is Mrs De Winter. It seems that from the beginning of the film, the setting of a dual heroine has been explained-a dead person who has never appeared, but is everywhere like a ghost, and a woman who lives in the name of the hostess, but always feels like a dwarf. No celebrities. The heroine lives in the shadow of the hero's ex-wife Rebecca from time to time, even before she married Maxim and moved to Manderley. She is obese (can you not get fat if you eat something bad and just take chocolate to taste it), narcissism (when others walk around her, she readily thinks that the man admires her and is too shy to show love, but it looks like this Is a common problem of many women) American employers always attack her, "You are just a teeny weeny bit forward with Mr. Big", "You are not that kind of lady man wants to marry." The money-worshipping woman suppressed by the pattern, the girl who lost her mother in her childhood and had a poor family, naturally cannot build up the confidence equivalent to her beauty. As a result, she was always nervous, afraid of causing trouble to others-dirtying the table for fear of causing trouble to the waiter, three or two quickly resolved breakfast for fear of causing trouble to the always polite butler, but Zhang Ailing said well, People are in trouble when they are alive, and when the trouble is gone, the people are gone. Rebecca was gone, but she caused a lot of trouble. The first half of the movie, Rebecca, was portrayed as a perfect female image, as Maxim said, "she's got the three most important things that matter in a wife——breeding, brains and beauty. Because this is the perspective seen through the eyes of Mrs de Winter who considers himself an ugly duckling. Manderley loved Rebecca, his former mistress, and Mr. Frank Crawley said that she was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. The shrewd and capable Mrs Danvers said that Rebecca taught her how to arrange flowers and how to take care of the house. She also sails, rides and dances. Rebecca, in the word of mouth, is so beautiful, smart and funny. However, our thin, cowardly hostess knows nothing, except to use Maxim to help her out, she sketches a little (she can sketch a little). As a result, the hostess felt that all the people in the house, and even the people next to her pillow, were comparing her words and deeds with the perfect Rebecca, and she was falling into trouble everywhere. The president of Rebecca's fan club is undoubtedly her personal maid, Mrs Danvers. She pretended to accidentally reveal to the hostess that her bedroom in the big house was a temporary guest room renovation, and Manderley's most beautiful sea-view room was the bedroom of his late wife Rebecca. Danvers showed her the exquisite curtains, gorgeous wardrobes, and even lace underwear of the dead, showed Mrs de Winter the mink coat that Mr de Winter bought for his deceased wife, and showed the owner's new love the old man's favorites, which seemed to be flaring his teeth and dancing. To show off, but also to warn and taunt with ghastly-you don't want to get his love like this, even if you have the name of a mistress. Such a demonstration was almost the last straw to crush Mrs de Winter. Mrs Danvers is undoubtedly a sickly obsessed with Rebecca, more than a year after the latter's death, she still used to change into fragrant flowers. Her fanatical adoration of Rebecca is not just as simple as the servant's loyalty to the old master. Perhaps in her bones, she has a secret love between the same sex for Rebecca, so she even opened the window to persuade the new mistress to commit suicide; or her own marriage is unhappy (she has never laughed, the look on her face is always the same from beginning to end She is stiff, always wearing a black robe) But in the bottom of her heart, Rebecca's happiness will be secretly substituted into her imagination, so she always goes to the bedroom of the deceased, opening the window and facing the sea like a hostess. Because of misfortune, I tried to look up to perfect happiness. However, there is no perfect happiness in the world itself, but stupid humans always think that the combination of a rich man and a beautiful woman is the perfect happiness in the world. Therefore, people take it for granted that Maxim is very sad and deeply pained. The pain of losing a wife cannot be extricated, is there any other possibility? ! ! In fact, things in the world are far less logical than they seem on the surface, and the human eye seems to have its own automatic simplification function. The second half of the movie reveals the truth behind the seemingly reasonable actions of the real Rebecca and Maxim. Rebecca is beautiful but beautiful, but unfortunately he is so romantic and often fools around with his cousin. Unwilling to be humiliated but even more embarrassed by the family's humiliation, Maxim reached an agreement with Rebecca. Until Rebecca told Maxim that she was pregnant and the father was not him. Maxim was so angry that he knocked down Rebecca. Rebecca slammed his head against a heavy object and died with a weird smile on his lips. Men and women seem to be a fair standard in the world, but people often overlook the most important point, if you don't love me. With the feeling of losing the heroine, Maxim told him the truth. However, this is not the truth. Following the investigation of the case, Rebecca's previous doctors told everyone that Rebecca was not pregnant but was diagnosed with terminal cancer and died soon. Regardless of the law, this news can more or less relieve Maxim's guilt and restore his confidence in a happy life. What we saw was what we wanted to believe. When Maxim heard Rebecca's name, his face sank. Everyone thought it was because he fell into memory again, but he didn't know it was the panic of his missed murder. When Maxim saw Mrs de Winter put on the skirt that Rebecca once wore and stood in front of him, but he couldn't help being furious. The hostess thought he missed Rebecca, but she didn't know it was she who reminded him of his dead wife's flamboyant and unfaithful love. Every one of us holds the truth that we think we think, but in fact it is a scam that deceives ourselves and others. Maybe, that Rebecca has the ultimate truth, but who is Rebecca, she has never appeared. PS: Lawrence Oliver, the actor who plays the leading actor in the film, is Vivien Leigh's partner. It really is a match made in heaven. I don’t agree that the love between the hero and the heroine in the film is simply and rudely classified as a Cinderella story. After watching the complete movie and then looking back, I will fully understand why the simple, clumsy and slightly nervous female protagonist wins the heart of the male protagonist. In the end, the male protagonist can overcome the guilt of killing his ex-wife by mistake because of the female protagonist’s kindness and understanding. I mentioned earlier that the heroine has nothing to do. In fact, she knows how to love, though sometimes in an awkward way, but fortunately, that's exactly what Maxim needs, blind and devoted love.
