Spooky Afternoon Classics: Rebecca
It wouldn’t be a proper Spooky Season without some classic Gothic Romance on the big screen!
Alfred Hitchcock’s dreamlike adaptation of Daphne du Maurier’s 1938 novel stars the enchanting Joan Fontaine as a young woman who believes she has found her heart’s desire when she marries the dashing aristocratic widower Maxim de Winter (played with cunning vulnerability by Laurence Olivier).
But upon moving to Manderley—her groom’s baroque ancestral mansion—she soon learns that his deceased wife haunts not only the estate but the temperamental, brooding Maxim as well.
What’s a girl to do but try to unravel the terrifying mystery?
