Du Maurier took the reader down the garden path and then tipped them over a cliff. I had to read the passage about the truth of Rebecca several times because I didn't believe it. The writer had made me believe something completely different.<br /><br />Thank you for this post on a great book and wonderful movie.<br /><br />Mitzi Reinbold w/a Mitzi FlyteMitzihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15429148644855477143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8535414384309157179.post-9316447831400488392015-05-15T12:08:20.770-05:002015-05-15T12:08:20.770-05:00Hi alice!

But I love them ... like noir ... they don't always get it.<br /><br />One of my all time favs is Now Voyager with Betty Davis and Paul Henreid. <br /><br />We had a tiny movie house in the village ... The Regency and they specialized in the old classics. You could get a whole week of Bogart and that bunch. It was heaven :) Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04945541317281436950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8535414384309157179.post-71872569697346659302015-05-15T11:27:28.884-05:002015-05-15T11:27:28.884-05:00Nice post.

And when she finally takes control, her body and speech took over. She did an excellent job and deserved to be nominated for an Oscar.

Can you imagine Ms. Fontaine's distress -- or maybe not -- when Alfred Hitchcock told her that diabolical lie. Or perhaps he was just trying to slip her into the second Mrs. De Winter's character. I would love to see this film! xxooDonnell Ann Bellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07943037206984648849noreply@blogger.com
