Rebekka

In Alfred Hitchcock's first American film, a young, unnamed narrator meets a wealthy widower Maxin de Winter in Monte Carlo, where they fall in love and get married. Maxim takes his new bride to Manderlay, his large country estate in Cornwall. The mansion's servants, however, refuse to accept her as the lady of the house. They seem stubbornly loyal to de Winter's first wife, Rebecca, who died mysteriously. Mrs. Danvers, the estate's rigid housekeeper, is obsessed with Rebecca and keeps her room as shrine, constantly referring to her as "the real Mrs. de Winter." The new Mrs. de Winter nearly goes mad until an investigation leads to uncovering Rebecca's true nature. (Criterion)
