Rebecca

on BBC Television

A film drama starring Laurence Olivier and Joan Fontaine.

To marry an attractive widower, and to be haunted by the spirit of his dead wife - this is the fate of the shy, un-spoilt girl who is swept off her feet to become the second wife of the wealthy but mysterious Maxim de Winter.
The combination of Daphne du Maurier's best-selling story, Alfred Hitchcock's skilful direction, and the acting of a star-studded cast has resulted in an outstanding film.
