[QUOTE="Crimson, post: 279891, member: 5079"] REBECCA is one of the great films of the 1940s, its leading lady more or less aside. I don't have a problem with Joan's performance, per se; I think she finds the right level of gauche awkwardness. I just don't like her very much as an actress, which skewers my sympathy for the character. (In SUSPICION, I was disappointed Cary Grant [I]didn't[/I] kill her!) Olivia, perhaps? If she had been able to give the kind of performance she did nearly a decade later in THE HEIRESS, she could have been a great Mrs. DeWinter and far more likeable. [/QUOTE]
