Event Description REBECCA – 1940, 130 min. With Joan Fontaine, Laurence Olivier, Judith Anderson, George Sanders, Nigel Bruce, Gladys Cooper and Reginald Denny. Truly one of the greatest classic films of all time! The first American film directed by Alfred Hitchcock. Based on the famed novel by Daphne de Maurier, produced by David O. Selznick (his first film after Gone With The Wind). Rebecca has been dead for six months when the story opens and we meet the second Mrs. DeWinter (the first name of this main character is never revealed!). When she arrives at the great estate “Manderley,” which is almost a character itself in the story, she finds it possessed by everything that was Rebecca’s. Mrs. Danvers (the housekeeper and Rebecca’s personal maid) tries to destroy the young bride’s marriage until Rebecca’s body is found inside her sunken boat, which climaxes with the questions, who really was Rebecca and how did she die? Romance, mystery and suspense at its best! Free with general admission to the Museum: $5 Adults/$3 Seniors, Veterans and Students/Free to members and Active Military.
