    1940 had MGM throwing money, gorgeous black and white photography, one of greatest director at helm, one of greatest actor playing Max (God he was good looking), Joan Fontain nailed it as awkward bride along with unblinking Mrs Danver who chills at the suicide scene. This one is classic for reason. That score and atmosphere make the whole thing so alive. This is dish that came together and can only be replicated as inferior. Acting is only part of what makes movie great.

    I'm sorry to Armie Hammer fans, but nobody can hold a candle to the Max de Winter of Laurence Olivier. Damn, he was gorgeous. Also, Hitchcock's Rebecca was about a hundred times better than any other version. It gives the viewer the same sense of apprehension and has the same ominous air as the book portrays. If any of you haven't already seen it because it's black and white (apparently such people exist), go and watch it! You're missing out on a masterpiece by a genius director and cast.

    I know it's a matter of taste, but Olivier had this elusive, aloof, mysterious quality and the art of acting with his eyes. And Charles Dance is imposing, full of authority. Armie Hammer looks like a kid next to them. And does he really have to wear that suit? As for the women, Judith Anderson and Joan Fontaine defined their roles once and forever. Anderson's Mrs. Danvers became an archetype. Maybe it's just that actors used to be stronger presences in the past.

    Well, actors used to act; not just "find something within themselves to relate to the character" and end up playing more or less the same character all the time. When Dustin Hoffman appeared with Olivier, he ran three times around the studio building to get out of breath for a scene. Olivier said to him "Have you ever thought of acting it instead?"

    Actors and their work are the result of choices made by producers, director, execs. Not Hammer’s fault if he’s too young for the part, at least according to the original novel. He should be judged in the context of the current version. Every remake tries to give the old story some new spin or update, sometimes with good results sometimes not. I guess they have chosen a handsome young actor to make it more a conventional romance. The book is a dark gothic story with no love in it, as far as I can remember.

    I prefer the 1997 adaptation, I know I’m in the minority. I just recaptures my experience with the book better. Emilia Fox is almost exactly who I pictured as the protagonist and Charles Dance really does look old enough to be her father, just like Maxim is in the book. The stars in the other 1940 & 2020 versions look too close in age. Diana Rigg is perfectly cast as Mrs Danvers. 1940 is still a classic however, and still has the best atmosphere with the black and white cinematography. 2020 had some pretty cinematography but a little too colourful. Kristen Scott Thomas is really the only good thing about it.

Its Maxim that has the fear of being deserted by his second wife that kept him from telling the truth.The lack of honesty is the main issue of their marriage but they truly love each other which showed more intensity in the 2020 version.

    I have no problem with new adaptations of classic novels. These two TV productions (sorry Netflix!) are not remakes of the first movie, they are reinterpretations of the novel. But they don't stand a chance. The Selznick/Hitchcock version is unsurpassable. I can't be bothered watching the latest version, she's too old and he's never yet given an outstanding performance plus he's never going to get the nuances of English class or period. For some reason, they never get period hair or class diction right in modern productions and the portrayal of women is anachronistic, modernised to the point of being ludicrous - if women had thought and behaved like they do in modern period drama they wouldn't have been wives and servants. I notice Lily was driving him, that would never have been the case, he wouldn't have tolerated it, even if she could drive, which this wallflower character wouldn't have learned to do. Isn't Waxman's score superb?

    the 2020 version sucks in my opinion. This is my rant abt it. As a person who has read the book, I do not find it accurate at all, it actually seems like they did not read it, or completely missed the point, bc a few unsaid things that the book lets on are not in the movie, for exemple the recurring theme in the book that Maxim doesnt show affection, or very very little of it, towards the protagonist. Speaking of Maxim, I cringed when she called him Max lol, bc the fact that she is told by him to call him Maxim and not Max is a point explicitly discussed in the book. The casting is terriblle (not the actors themselves, I love them personally), they do not represent the charachters from the book. Emilia Fox is actually the way I imagined mrs de winter down to a T, naive, very young and scared all the time but with some potential and repressed smarts behind her eyes. Also, it looks like they forgot they were in the 1930's, bc some behaviors in scenes are just not correct lol. Wraping it up, I just find it really funny that all movies had Denvers start the fire at Manderly, while in the book it is not revealed who set the fire, it just ends with them seeing Manderley on fire from far out on the road there, but I can see that happening, this decision doesnt bother me at all. Sorry its a long comment but I just had to share my rant on this bc I love this book and I was really excited for this movie and it totally let me down. DISCLAIMER: you are allowed to like it!

And of course with Hitchcock, the psychology of the characters, the inner drives, are beautifully suggested. So, the character of Mrs Danvers is much more twisted and odd. Charles Dance is wonderful as Maxim in the 90's version, (had forgotten how gorgeous he is) and the most recent is more of a romance. Not bad, just not as interesting or thrilling.

    Yeah that’s why she liked his take on Rebecca despite the changes, because he stayed true to the tone of her book and most of the story. Unfortunately she really disliked his take on Jamaica Inn and The Birds because they were just to different. She was also underwhelmed by the My Cousin Rachel movie. Interestingly some of her favorite adaptations of her work were the more obscure old movies Brian Desmond Hurst’s Hungry Hill and Nicolas Roeg’s Don’t Look Now

    I agree with you! People tend to act superior for liking old movie renditions more than the remakes. For me, the first of the Rebecca movies I saw was the 1940 one. I absolutely love it but I honestly think I enjoy the 2020 version just as much. It was able to get me invested in Mrs de Winter’s character and even though I knew what was going to happen - it made me feel really emotional and on the edge of my seat for pretty much the entire movie. It’s a great film!

    @@smurfette_blues7922 "but i have to say that i found it to be a blunder even without seeing the other adaptations. There are valid criticisms to be made about it." That's because the 2020 version fails to understand the core of the original story. Many movie reviewers have pointed this out. It fundamentally changes the character and her place in the story, not to mention the things that drive her. You basically get a whole different movie which doesn't work where the original did. It completely misses its mark. There are three kinds of remakes. 1. The shot-for-shot remake, which basically is a carbon copy and adds nothing new. 2. The remake made by somebody who clearly didn't understand the original movie and what the underlying structure in the story and the protagonist really is about. 3. The remake which honors the original and puts an original spin on it by going a bit further or even improving on the storytelling but adding another layer merely hinted in the original. For remake type 1: See Psycho (1998), Funny Games (2007), the Lion King (2019) For remake type 2: See 90% of all remakes ever made. Rebecca (2020) is just one of countless. For remake type 3: See John Carpenter's The Thing (1982), David Cronenberg's The Fly (1986), Peter Jackson's King Kong (2005). For clueless people: Dismiss the original movie just because you saw an inferior remake. Real pity. As to why remakes are made: 1. Making money from an old hit and old story most kids today are oblivious to and are unlikely to see even if they do know about it. 2. Trying to improve an all-time classic and making a name as a director - usually failing and then forever being stuck making game movies or stupid slasher horror films. 3. Fooling those who love the originals into hoping they're going to see a good remake of it. But mostly it's about reason 1.

    "Although I'm still in love with the 2020 version (mainly because of Lily James)" Well, this proves you saw *her* and not the movie. You solely decided to see it because she's in it and since you already like her you're automatically going to like whatever she appears in - irregardless if the movie itself is good or bad. I don't think you can be trusted to make a fair assessment of the film itself when you're clearly so infatuated by an actress - and admit it no less. "Stop the hate to the remakes just to make you look like you're superior than anyone else." Well, here you fail to assess people too. When you already have seen the original - especially one that is considered an all-time great or classic - it goes without saying that one neither looks forward to seeing another adaptation (when none is needed) nor some anachronistic story which just falls flat. People just find that insulting. It's stealing or borrowing somebody else's idea and presenting it as your own. Obviously you're going to be scrutinized a lot harder than if it were a wholly original movie. I don't care if a remake makes a billion dollar at the box office. If there are people out there who enjoy an inferior films then all power to the studios who milk them for all their money. See them a hundred times if you want. The studios will make anything you want. The choice is all yours. Be happy with your choice (and I'm being sarcastic here since there isn't any choice involved). If I prefer an original movie I don't care if I'm alone with this opinion or others share it with me. You also fail to understand that it's not a rigid and set absolute. Some remakes are better than their original films - but these are rare. John Carpenter always loved the original "The Thing from another World" (1951) but when he made his famous 1982 remake he followed the original 1932 story "Who Goes There?" a lot closer and added a whole new element of paranoia which wasn't present in the original film. The original had a clear ending while Carpenter's remake wisely ends the film with an open ending left to the viewer - who by this stage still is paranoid The original The Fly from 1958 is a decent horror drama about a scientific experiment going wrong. The 1986 remake just keeps the basic premise but re-imagines the story. It becomes far more tragic and difficult as one is seeing the gradual destruction (of something I won't spoil). The story is told in a different chronological order too. Some remakes are decent and can be compared with their originals or are a tiny notch below them. See the 1983 remake of Scarface, compared to the original Scarface from 1932. Basically a modern day adaptation transferred into the 80's cocaine drug trade era. A few films have been remade several times. "A Star is Born" was made in 1937, 1954, 1976 and 2018. Most consider the 1954 version with Judy Garland the best one. I've not seen any version so I'll pass my judgment. I have however seen all four versions of "The Invasion of the Body Snatchers". They were made in 1956, 1978, 1993 and 2007. In my mind the 1978 version (the first remake) is the definitive version of this story. Here I disagree with those who consider the 1956 original the best. At core the original is just thinly veiled Cold War propaganda to "beware of the reds among us" . The 1978 version wisely drops all political stances and treats it like a human story and as a critique of how similar people really are in a consumer society and how little they concern themselves with other people's serious problems. This was horror completely missing from the original. The *human element* . The 1993 version is just a run-of-the-mill "Monster infiltrates high school and beautiful girls" film just using the premise of the original film as an excuse. The 2007 version is a travesty which tries to compensate with lots of gore by having a completely uninteresting story. You liked the 2020 version of Rebecca? Good for you. If you haven't seen the original how can you really compare it?? And whether you like it or not the public (not to critics mind you) have already given their judgment. 6,0 on the IMDB isn't very impressive sounding. That's compared to the original which currently sits on #235 at the IMDB top 250 movies (8,1 in public score). "Although I'm still in love with the 2020 version (mainly because of Lily James)." No, let's decipher that shall we? You are in love with Lily James. That's it.
