Another Hitchcock classic!

3 years, 6 months ago at Dec 8 20:05
I love this film because it is so dark, so mysterious, so tense and even quite lovely to watch as well. It is a very dark psychological story based on deep thinking mystery and puzzle solving. Rebecca is probably the classic of thrillers before Psycho was released especially because they are both Alfred Hitchcock films. Rebecca is one of those stories that you would get totally gripped with all th... read more

Though the only Hitchcock film to win a best picture Award, Rebecca remains over-looked by contemporary audiences, never to reach classic, essential Hitch status. Honestly, I'm not surprised. In its entire 130 minutes there is not a single, truly memorable scene. And great scenes are how we call movies back to mind. Sure we may vaguely remember liking a film or not liking a film, but ultimately ti... read more

Since I’m a huge fan of Alfred Hitchcock, I was really eager to check this flick. In my opinion, it is not one of his great masterpieces like ‘Psycho’, ‘North by Northwest’ or ‘Vertigo’ but it is still a very solid thriller nonetheless. It was actually a rather important movie in his career. Indeed, it was the first film he made in Hollywood and the only one that managed to win the B... read more

“As commented by Schickel in my blu ray,I realized hoy tense was the encounter between Hitch and Selznick. Perhaps DS freezes a little Hitch's humour and explorations, but the looks are greater than any other black and white Hitchcock. Mousy Fontaine steals the show fron affected Larry Olivier. But Judith Anderson dominates the film wherever she appears” read more

It was actually a rather important movie in his career. Indeed, it was the first film he made in Hollywood and the only one that managed to win the Best Picture Oscar (that the guy never managed to win a Best Director Academy Award is quite mind-blowing). To be frank, I don’t think it is one of the strongest storied developed by the great master but it was greatly compensated by the awesome mood created and the very good cast. Honestly, I haven’t seen many movies starring Laurence Olivier (only about 8 so far) but the guy was sure a fine a” read more

"11.4.2013, boksi Yksi näitä suhteellisen harvoja kuuluisammasta päästä olevia näkemättömiä Hitchcockeja nyt katsottuna. Joan Fontaine on aivan ihastuttava ilmestys, mustavalkokuvaus kaunista jne., mutta pituutta on kenties hieman liikaa. Varsin katsottava joka tapauksessa."

" The Ups: Joan Fontaine. Laurence Olivier. Creepy Judith Anderson. Great gothic thriller romance. Delicate photography. Intense Bernard Herrmann music. The Downs: It is a fucking classic. Why need to find anything bad with it? "
