There's never been a movie, a character who's never been in a movie, that can control all the clues in this movie, can control the fate of all the characters in the movie, and Rebecca is such a movie.
We only knew at first how beautiful Rebecca was, how virtuous, how capable. But in the end we know that Rebecca is a lewd, shameless woman with an unexpected plot!
And then another unexpected episode! Turns out Rebecca wasn't pregnant! She was just terminally ill and she wanted Laurence Olivier to kill her! Laurence Olivier is not even morally responsible for his actions!
In the end, Danvers burned Manderley Manor and perished with him. The movie begins with question marks and ends with such big exclamation marks, like many Hitchcock masterpieces.
The following are my views on the details of the film, in which we can see the profound influence of German film expressionism Hitchcock, but except for a few individual shots that are allusions to the plot, (such as the one that was never opened at the beginning The shots of Rebecca's house door, like the silhouette of Mrs. Danvers in the fire at the end) are mostly for beauty and beauty, and you can see that many of the shots are very beautiful and worth appreciating. It can also be seen from the other side of Hitchcock, this seemingly naughty old urchin.
