... on TMC. Very early Hitchcock, one of his first big hits, IIRC. Mostly plays like a typical early British mystery movie, but you can see Hitchcock developing his style with lighting and camera movements here and there.Followed by the wonderfully incomprehensible "The Big Heat" which I watched for about half an hour, remembering how the plot completely falls apart about halfway through.

Follow Ups:
Rebecca a very early Hitch? You must be jocking! It would be right for his US period but not for his work. And he already knew every thing on his craft.
BTW it was to an half Selznik effort too.

> Rebecca a very early Hitch?Sorry, I meant US-wise, of course. Should have clarified a bit. I don't think he fully developed his style for a few more films, Rebecca didn't feel like a fully developed Hitchcock work. Sort of like Kubrick, who didn't fully develop his own style until the 60's (post-Spartacus)

If you look after his " English " period you will see that he early found his style, refining it again and again.
Rebecca smells a little after his producer and Hitch let it us all know in his conversation with Truffaut, beside the fact that like in " Spellbound " you can see it and also ...Hear it.Never the less Rebecca is a very fine film, I love particulary this Russian guy in it....
