Jeremy☆Brett - Rebecca (1979) Epi.1 2/4 

He is so handsome and so right as Max de Winter here! I love him still.

He has to be the ideal Max De Winter in every way.

WOW!!! This is my second time viewing this version of Rebecca. I am so blown away by the fact that I was never even aware of this. I don't believe it was ever released here in the states. What a tremendous actor Jeremy Brett was. How he so captured the essense of the character with all his little subtle nuiances. Splendid version. I love this soooo much! I'll be watching this over and over and over again. The focus seems so much more appropriately placed on his character and how he relates to and tries so desperately to cling to the new life he's created with his new wife. Her virgin, unspoiled life, and her sincere love for him is his salvation.... and he knows it. A beautiful love story so well done. BBC got it so right when they chose Jeremy Brett for the lead.

I love this era, and I love Jeremy Brett's voice. It's so bloody sexy. It's nice to see him after Sherlock Holmes.

They had so much class! So prep and proper ❤

so great to see this again -the music is wonderful as well as JB.

I WANT HER HAT!!! THE STRAW WITH ALL THE DECORATIONS

Laurence Olivier and Jeremy Brett. Very nice! The Charles Dance version does not hold up at all, with a very old man with his hair dyed blond. Ugggh.

In order to throw something away you have to know it all the way, in the end you have enough conscience to choose and hope for the best..

Lol After watching the whole movie , I think Mr. winter confused and hurt about Rebecca , their love could have been beautiful .. But I don't know why .. Why it had burnt down .. So I have to sympathize with both Rebecca & Mr. winter .. He expressed a lot in this scene.. In the car about his mansion and how beautiful the scenery there .. He is still in that torment but still questioning , seeking ..

10:23 so mean LOL

Michael Greenwood, in 1900.1920 and 1930 marriage held not only on sex and passion. Men behaved nobler against women (were not flowing) at least in the light ...

not all British actors can do an American accent.

What the heck is Mrs van Hopper's accent. I thought she was supposed to be an American?

I film version in 1979 and 1997, Rebecca liked more, they are more details on the book. Although the version of Hitchcock Laurence Olivier gave very talented character Maximilian de Winter.

Oh please. I had no intention or desire to argue "The Point". In fact I was not really making any point at all. If any point could be deduced from what I wrote (Seemingly now gone) then it would have been surely that I was not endowed with such great deductive reasoning powers as you. For I would never have been able to deduce that from the film or from the book. From my observable facts I could deduce that she was likely a virgin but there was nothing to say that she most certainly was. But whilst thinking of my question I was also thinking of Sherlock Holmes, Watson and J. Brett and the exasperated way Watson would question Holmes about what to Dr. Watson was an astounding deduction beyond anything Watson himself could do. Being a bit of a fan of the written book and the 1940s adaptation I watched this BBC adaptation then read your comment. But nothing in either the book, nor film ever revealed it self to me to indicate that she most certainly was a virgin. But alas I am not the all seeing eye. So occasionally when others see something which I missed, I ask them sometimes to explain. So as I may have missed some obvious point which was evident in the book or the adaptation, I asked the person who made the observation. There was no intention of any argument. A bit of a discussion maybe. But closer to the truth was just a comment. Of course you are allowed your own opinion about the subject. There too I never made any objection to your opinion. I didn't bother to say at the time I wrote what I wrote that your opinion may in fact be highly admirable. But really my quest was just for some indication on how on earth such could be deduced. Our virginity is not something which is stamped on our foreheads or only in existence whilst a halo circles our heads. Therefore once the halo is gone it is clear a persons virginity is gone. My own personal experience suggests to me that there is absolutely no physical outward change to a young person after having sex. Nor mentally. So a young person may retain an air of innocents, naiveté and purity even though she has had sex. Even an air of promiscuity about a young person does not mean she or he has ad sex. But I have probably watched and read too much Sherlock Holmes to betaken seriously. I meant it rather light heartedly. But as I watched every episode of Jeremy Bretts Sherlock Holmes as well as others over the years I thought you may deduce I phrased the question a bit Holmes and Watson like in style and so felt it was more in the style of entertainment. Lol. But I certainly had nothing to argue about. Posted 20th August 2014 @ 1.02AM GMT

Just struck me that Joanna David looks rather like Moira Shearer of "The Red Shoes".

Imturmenne, why do you think that all women were stamped with the behavior? After all, in 1926 decorum and decency. Denschiny were not vulgar.

at least in St. (secular society).

Olivirish but debonair appeal

Never seen this version but I don't like it there's no chemistry between the two and I really can't get past the fact she looks so old she more wrinkles then he does

Ugh I don't like him as Max he's far to dry and creepy and the actress looks older than him
