I've read the book at least six times and always reread it with great pleasure. It is so well written, really. This TV movie was an excellent adaptation, the best compared to a more recent one with Charles Dance as Max De Winter (Charles Dance.... give me a break! This guy has the charisma of an oyster shell!) and even compared to Hitchcock's movie with Laurence Olivier and Joan Fontaine.
Anna Massey is a terrifying Mrs Danvers, skinny and cold with perfect tight lips. Joanna David plays the ingénue with much wit and charm. Jeremy Brett is the perfect British gentleman, charismatic and mysterious, hiding a terrible secret. As for Rebecca, the first dead wife, she is a real character in this version, the central character even despite the fact that we never see her on screen. Only hear about her but in such a way that it
I've been looking to buy this version in VHS (or DVD now) but BBC has not yet released it. It's a real shame.
