Rebecca

Alfred Hitchcock's Best Picture-winning gothic tale of a remarried widower haunted by the ghost of his first wife.

After the death of his first wife, Maximilian de Winter (Laurence Olivier) escapes England to spend time in Monte Carlo where he meets, quickly falls in love with, and marries a younger woman (Joan Fontaine). Upon bringing her back to his English estate of Manderley, all of his servants accept her as the head of the house, all except for the housekeeper Mrs. Danvers (Judith Anderson). What follows, in total Hitchcockian fashion, is an unparalleled power struggle ending in death and dishonor—but whose?
