	DVD Review - Rebecca (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		I was eager to see all these films, especially because I had already noticed Anchor Bay’s excellent VHS releases of these films a few months ago, anticipating a release on DVD just as well, but it was "Rebecca" I was looking for the most.
		"Rebecca" is a romantic thriller that manages to build a chilling, eerie atmosphere keeping you on the edge all the way to the film’s last seconds.
		Although subtle noise is evident throughout most of the film, it almost adds to the movie’s overall atmosphere, because as a result all of the ambient sound effects are left intact.

	Rebecca (1940)
		The somber film's screenplay (by Robert E. Sherwood and Joan Harrison) was based on a literal translation of Daphne du Maurier's 1938 gothic novel of the same name, in the tradition of Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre.
		The pathetic, bewildered and shy bride experiences fear, pain and guilt when psychologically dominated by the 'presence' (and memories) of the deceased first wife (named Rebecca but never seen on screen), and when she is tormented by Rebecca's blindly adoring, sinister and loyal housekeeper's (Anderson) recollections of the dead woman.
		The plain, shy, naive, and innocent young woman (unnamed in the film until she is married and adopts her husband's name) is on an off-season trip to Southern France (Monte Carlo - the French Riviera) as a traveling "paid companion" with her wealthy dowager Mrs.

	The Criterion Collection: Rebecca
		Rebecca is presented in its original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.33:1.
		The soundtrack for Rebecca was restored and preserved from the original 35mm nitrate optical soundtrack negative, a 35mm acetate dupe negative, and a 35mm magnetic music and effects master.
		Rebecca comes with my highest recommendation to fans of Hitchcock, fans of suspense, fans of horror, and even the most faithful fans of du Maurier.

	Salon \| Television: "Rebecca"
		The three-and-a-half hour "Rebecca" (which has already aired in the U.K.) is the fourth filming of the novel but, really, Hitchcock's cork-popper is still the one that counts.
		("Rebecca" was Hitchcock's first American movie and the only one of his films to win the Academy Award for best picture.) Late in his life, Hitchcock told an interviewer he'd thought du Maurier's novel was "humorless," and maybe he was right.
		Hitchcock's depiction of Danvers' and Rebecca's possible lesbian attachment is not a flattering one -- Danvers is quite mad and the polysexual and cruel Rebecca is revealed to have been both barren and rotten with cancer -- but then this was all lifted straight from du Maurier.

		She's haunted by the legacy of Maxim's deceased first wife Rebecca and overawed by her housekeeper, the icy and terrifying Mrs Danvers (Anderson).
		She's totally unaware of Rebecca's true nature, however, and that Maxim is concealing a secret that has the potential to destroy him.

	The Planet - Rebecca and how it pertains to the film?
		Rebecca is a film adaptation of a novel about a woman who marries an aristocrat who's been left psychologically scarred by his destructive, amoral first wife and her still-active cronies.
		Dude its not the story of Rebecca he is talking about if you go back and hear what he said you will know he was talking about the look of the film.
		I LOVE Rebecca and I had a hard time searching for a DVD but I eventually found one--but with Chinese subtitles that I can't take off but the quality of the film's still great, the story is timeless and I also bought the novel because I can't get enough of it.

	Rebecca - Music from the Movies
		What we have here are two legendary film scores, brilliantly recorded with the excellent Royal Scottish National Orchestra and sensitively conducted by a first rate interpreter of classic film scores (and a great composer in his own right), Joel McNeely.
		However, the producer never really understood the basics of film scoring and was dissatisfied with the most obvious: that Waxman couldn't score the film without the final edit at hand.
		Now, we all now that the final cut of the film is blessed with a full-blown Franz Waxman score and this new recording of the score is even better than the one made by Adriano and the Czech-Slovak Radio Symphony Orchestra in 1990.

	At-A-Glance Film Reviews: Rebecca (1940)
		Essentially a Hitchcockian "noir-ish" mystery, this atmospheric film explores the kind of characters Hitch found most fascinating: ordinary characters disturbed by dark, hidden passions -- with a sweet and relatively innocent protagonist thrown in the midst and left to sort it all out.
		Volumes could be written analyzing the layers of meaning here, yet still not capture the artistry and eloquence with which the film expresses it.
		In addition, it's a greatly entertaining film, alluring, gripping, chilling, satisfying to the very end.

		Rebecca is an ageless, timeless adult movie about a woman who marries a widower but fears she lives in the shadow of her predecessor.
		In today's films, most twists and surprises are ridiculous or just gratuitous, so it's sobering to look back on this film where every revelation not only shocks, but makes organic sense with the story line.
		This film has all the Hitchcock elements in place, but with only one thing missing...The producer decided to go the straight route and contain Hitchcock's element of unnerving suspense, his uncanny sense of the absurd, supreme visual storytelling techniques and most importantly, his dry, sarcastic, cunning sense of humor.

	Rebecca Film Review - Time Out Film
		When we first meet her, in Monte Carlo, she’s under the thumb of the grotesque Mrs Van Hopper (Florence Bates), a domineering pheasant of a woman who spends her time belittling her sparrow-like paid companion, gobbling down chocolates and stubbing fags out in the cold cream.
		Manderley’s oppressive atmosphere is also marked by the sheer number of things in the place, and the extra filters through which we frequently watch its action – muslin hangings, cobwebs, flames, even the light cast by a home movie projector.
		Hitchcock’s first US production, ‘Rebecca’ was overseen by the notoriously hands-on David O Selznick, and is somewhat tonally inconsistent; following the social comedy of Monte Carlo and suspense of Manderley, the pace slackens in the crime procedural of the final half-hour, which is all tell and no show.

		While Rebecca has enough surprises to captivate even the most jaded of moviegoers, it is also one of those rare films that improves with each viewing.
		The plot is intriguing as well and the way that the whole film is dominated from start to finish by one person, whom the viewer never even sees a photograph of, is a testimony to the ability of the director and the cast.
		This 1940 film was a star at the Oscars, winning two and gaining a raft of nominations in almost every class.

	DVD Review - Rebecca
		It's one of the biggest looking films from the grand era of Hollywood, with its huge sets, wordy plots, dramatic music cues, broadly drawn characters and enough operatic intrigue and suspense to keep you entertained for its entire length.
		The house staff remains oddly devoted to Rebecca, and the new Mrs.
		At the very least, a theatrical trailer or production notes would have satisfied me. But, as is the case with many titles that are licensed to independent distributors, there's nothing in the way of even basic extras on this disc.

	REBECCA HORN
		Film and video, originally used by Horn as the media for documentation of her performance shows, have with passage of time become autonomous works of art in which the plot and the objects featured are unified as a new creative value and artistic quality.
		A tight union of sculptured objects and the language of film proves the foundation of the artists' output.
		However, her installations, objects and films are based on texts of a predominantly emotional nature, deprived of a linear narrative.

		Rebecca, Alfred Hitchcock's first American film, is such a wonderful movie I didn't want it to end.
		The sinister evil antagonist, the three dimensional portrait of the protagonist with all of it's complex angst and guilt ridden characterization, and the surprise plot twists are pure Hitchcock.
		While much of the commentary on the film Rebecca is interesting and helpful, I find it most annoying to frequently encounter misspellings and malapropisms.

		Called in to protect the owners' interests, priggish Captain Marsden (Dormandy) and his dragoons are outwitted by Rebecca's Daughters, marauding gangs of men who dress as women to attack the hated turnpikes.
		Anthony's fiancée (Richardson) naturally prefers the cross-dressed avenging Rebecca to the seemingly ineffectual Anthony.
		For the most part, though, the tone is set by the fist fight between Anthony and a 'son of the soil' (Hywel) which predictably spills over into a pigsty.

		From the first misty shot of the gates and the famous words of "Last night I dreamed I went to Manderley again", Rebecca is an amazing film.
		This was Hitchcock's first Hollywood film and compares very well with his previous English films.
		Refusing David O Selznick's suggestion to have a huge burning `R' in the sky at the end, Hitchcock refused to pander to the Americans and kept up his tense, witty personal style.

		I have debated on whether Laurence Olivier's character, the tortured Maxim de Winter, is the pitiable character or if his second wife played by Joan Fontaine is really the one to feel sorry for.
		With a wonderful storyline, and a very surprising ending, Rebecca well deserves the title as the only of Hitchcock's films to win the oscar for Best Picture.
		Although it may not be the most famous of all his films, it is without a doubt the greatest
