So you guys are aware, her name is Joanna David and she also read an abridged version audiobook of Pride and Prejudice for Penguin Classics. And Jeremy sounds almost exactly like Holmes from the hidden object Sherlock Holmes games from Big Fish games
Funny that Jeremy and Anna Massey didn't speak to each other during the whole filming of Rebecca......reason...Jeremy had just bought their son David a motorbike for his birthday and Anna was so angry with Jeremy.
I'm so severly in love with Jeremy Brett. It's agony. Sexy and handsome are words that barely scratch the surface when trying to describe him. I'll love you forever, JB! xo
Oh, man!!! Perfect proposal! If Sherlock Holmes ever loved, and he ever asked a woman to marry him, THAT'S EXACTLY the way he would propose! Straight out, no fluff, no romance, just "marry me"! Jeremy Brett was in tune with Sherlock Holmes before he ever BECAME Sherlock Holmes! What a wonderful man!
Bonjour. Je cherche la version française de ce feuilleton, en DVD et VHS. Pourriez-vous me dire où je puis la trouver ? J'ai beaucoup aimé cette adaptation du roman de Daphné du Maurier. D'avance merci d'une réponse. Cordialement.
I was 16 when this was first shown,me and my mum watched it avidly.I was captivated by Mr B from that moment and have been ever since,however ,having read the comment by nivramm76,it confirms what I always thought that meeting him would have been pretty overpowering-but still cool as.
look how tan he is! He must have put so much white on for holmes . . . . Yeah, the damaged penguin, indeed! :) Does anyone have any vids of JB as watson?
You must know that TV productions have more of a 'real feel' and are on a much more strict budget. I think that Brett makes a better Maxim de Winter than Olivier. This scene is far superior to the 1940 version - you can cut the tension with a knife.
I think Brett studied with Olivier, which is oddly fitting since Olivier was so brilliant in this role....I'm glad he's not trying to copy Olivier. He's more harsh, less sympathetic, but almost as appealing.
thank you so very very much for this. Jeremy Brett is such a wonderful actor.
Alright, this may be a stupid question, but I've made an account on the the box and I've found Rebecca, I just don't know how to download it properly. I click on the link but nothing happens. Do I need to download a torrent program?
@shulien229 I am huge fan of the Hitchcock version and of the book but have to say this scene with Jeremy Brett is sublime. This is so close to the book and also wonderfully romantic and subtle.
This is such a wonderful scene. I love how it's drained of colour so that your eye is drawn to the tangerines on the table (read this scene in the book and you'll realise the symbolism of the tangerines). The actors play it with great subtlety too.
To all JB fans who are dying to see Rebecca: with some help from a fellow fan I'm going to upload all 4 episodes on the (free) torrent site The Box soon.
Watched the whole thing now and Joanna David's character did grow on me eventually. JB is absolutely stunning in this, I think this is the best I've seen him act apart from SH. He owns this part, moustache and all :)
I'm at ep 2 now and Joanna David is annoying the h*ll out of me. She looks and acts like a 12-year old schoolgirl... JB is very handsome though, like a romantic version of SH who knows just the right thing to say to a lady.
It has always amazed me how J.B. can make the strangest of lines sound perfectly natural. If anyone else had said that, I would have burst out laughing, but with him I was just staring in silent awe.
Just delicious!.. One of our countries most innately talented (& oh too sadly late) actors. Gorgeous (&, I'm not gay), and deeply inclined to his part, whatever it asked. He hated Holmes, (such an insular character), but my!, how how he made him sing!.. Dearly dearly missed... Jrx
oh... my O_O wow. im pretty new to JB, and the only thing ive seen him in has been Sherlock Holmes (which, of course, rules :D), but this has an all new facet of his abilities. i love it! holy green coffee beans, where can i find the rest of this?!?!
Why oh Why is this not available on DVD - I had this on VHS - Jeremy Brett is divine as Maxim - totally superior to the later offering - Joanna David far superior to her daughter Emilia Fox
I really liked the book 'Rebecca', but when I found out J.B. starred as Max in this film version, I liked it even more! P.s. That tash isn't real, is it???
Hi! I found one USA fan of it in Internet, and bought his version. He just sent it to me in return for money. Sorry for my mistakes, I am not native speaker:). But after I got it I found out that someone was saling the same version on DVD on Ebay. You should try to look for it there:)))
This is a great find. I have read so much about this version and have to say - just based on the two clips - that I can see why people love it so much. Thanks so much for posting this. I wish I could watch the whole thing. :-)
Oh, yes-yes-yes!!!Just kiss me because I can't stand waiting any more!
Your 42 doesn't seem too old for my 20!!! We would be an extremely happy couple if we got married... I really would like to be on her place! I had to be!
He and Edward Hardwicke were on stage in London for a Sherlock Holmes run - my mum got tickets through her company to meet the cast. Edward Hardwicke had a bad cold so we couldnt meet him, but Jeremy was there. He kissed my mum and me! Hugely powerful terrifying man!
Much easier to see in this version how they are a terrible match... how she truly isn't cut out for him or his world. With Joan Fontaine, the "girl" is so much less a finished character, for most of the film you think she'll grow into her role, just fine.
With Brett, the proposal has a sadist touch... with Olivier just a wistful, earnest one.
This is our favorite version, not only because we are huge Jeremy lovers, but also because it shows more human weakness, characteristics, etc,. The moodiness of Max is brought out so well by Jeremy. He was perfect in our opinion. :)
wonderful Jeremy, of course, but if someone asked me to marry them, then told me, in so many words, that one day they would have to remind me that I did once love them (what he said after she spoke of crying all night), I would have to think twice. True, that sly smile might just make me say yes, but what a horrid proposal....I would be terrified of him.
We are happy you enjoyed it, thank you. :) Jeremy was so wonderful in it. We can't push our luck by posting too much. Have already run into a problem on another. :(
Thank-you, thank-you for that scene!! I knew about the series but have never seen anything from it, it was amazing, Jeremy Brett was just so amazing!! fingers crossed for the dvd to be released at somepoint!! where did you get the clip from?? thanks again!!!
Unfortunately, a dvd release is not likely. There are problems with the copyright for some reason, at least that is what they say. However, I will message you with some info that might help you. I couldn't agree with you more, Jeremy was simply amazing! :)
**Thank you** for posting this scene! This is the first time I've seen *any* of this series, although I've been searching for it for ages (and I've loved the book for years and years). Why on earth isn't this version available on DVD?!
You are welcome. :) I have just messaged you with info and I hope it helps. Copyright problems (at least that is what has been claimed), is the supposed reason for no new release of this gem. Thanks so much and we are happy you enjoyed it. :)
I bet he made a great DeWinter. Is this available on dvd? I just love Jeremy Brett! My daughter and I saw the 1940 version of rebecca on TCM a little while ago and would love to see this one also. I bought The Good Soldier from Borders but they don't seem to have this one. That was good, by the way. Dark and sad, but a good story. Thanks for posting these clips for us!
I just messaged you with the info. :) Oh, I LOVE the Good Soldier! Brettilicious!!!! In Rebecca, Jeremy and all his Brettishness shine through perfectly. You will love it. Take care, and thank you. :)
I haven't ever seen the entire thing before, do you know where I could find it? Thank you! I have always liked Jeremy Brett in Sherlock Holmes, and I was excited to find him in this as well.
Sorry for the late reply. Yes, I will message you re where to find it. He was wonderful as Maxim. Have you seen 'Pitt'? He was amazing in that as well. Of course, he was an amazing man period. :)
JBrettsgirl - I'd be grateful if you would send me the information about where to find the whole production too. He was perfect for the part - better than Olivier by miles.
Thanks for these Rebecca videos. I never saw this version, but I really love Jeremy Brett as Max !!! Can't you post a few others videos of this 'Rebecca' ?
I was 16 when I first saw this and wrote to PBS. I received a letter from Mr Brett himself and a signed photograph. I still have it today. I wish they would release this Mystery Series! Thanks for the memories!
That is lovely that you received a signed photograph of our dear man and even better that you still have it. :) Great! Yes, wouldn't that be fantastic if they released it again?! Happy to share the memories with you. :) Thank you.
Hi, JBrettsgirl! Thanks for posting this clip of a lovely, haunting tale, done so well by JB, a lovely, haunted man. It's as though someone got inside my head and filmed my dream of who Maxim de Winter should be. JB beautifully portrays his despair (on the hotel terrace, a tear tracing his cheek) hidden in a shell of insensitivity. In the post, the play of emotion is a wonder: fear, hope, relief, love. Only then is the vulnerable, sweet man inside the shell seen. Is the DVD anywhere for sale?
You are welcome, Bonnielupine. :) This is one of our favorites and we believe JB was perfect in it. Thank you, lovely to see you feel Jeremy fit it perfectly as well. I will have to message you about the dvd. I will get back to you soon. Many thanks... :)
Hi JBrettsgirl! Thank you for this fantastic video! I am a very great Jeremy Brett fan from Hungary :-) I very like the "Rebecca" in book, but de film with Jeremy...it's sooo amazing! But unfortunately I saw only those scenes in the YouTube :-( But this film so much interests me! Jeremy is playing so well in it! And he is soooo sweet in this scene!!!
Happy you enjoyed it, Lulufluflu. :) Thank you for the lovely comment. Yes, he was splendid as Maxim as he was in his many other roles. He looked especially handsome in this as well. A beautiful man inside and out. What a fantastic smile he had, melts my heart every time. Many thanks again. :)
This is just words can't explain I was 13 years old when I first aw this series and fell in love JB and Maxim. I read the book at least once year and always see JB when doing so. Here's hoping one day the BBC will release it on dvd or VHS. you've made A 40 YEAR OLD VERY HAPPY THANKS
LOL, so your mom got on your account did she? Well she has wonderful taste and so do you, my dear. Happy to meet another JB fan. I wish I would have know about him at 16. Good heavens. Lovely to meet you. :)
You'll enjoy it Mikomi91 trust me I certainly did. As soon as you start you'll won't want to stop reading til its done. (A bit of a warning though you'll most likely want ring the heroine's neck because of her hestation with Maxim and other characters that are in the book before you're through!)I did lol! Enjoy it its qute a ride!
Wonderful! Glad to hear that Jeremy has mesmerized you as well. He was fabulous and thanks so much for the lovely comment. Much appreciated. :) Oh yes, he IS the ONLY Sherlock, period.
That is one of the best lines in a movie ever, spoken by one of the best actors ever. JBrettgirl - thank you for posting the Rebecca clips, it is impossible to find this DVD - I would love to see the whole thing one day. Do they make men like JB anymore? He carries himself and moves so well, so very sexy. My, my, an amazing man. Thank you so much!
Such a beautiful comment, my dear. :) Thank you and we must agree with you 100% about our divine JB. No, they don't I'm sorry to say. He was one of a kind in so many ways. A fabulous man indeed and we miss him. I can put you in touch with someone if you would like a copy, just message me sweetie. Many thanks again! :)
JBrettsgirl - I would love to find out how to get a Rebecca DVD copy, but I am new to the Youtube system, is there a specific way I should be contacting you other than these posts? So sorry to sound ignorant...
Hit JBrettsgirl which will take you to our homepage here. Then click send message. Truly, very sorry to take so long to get back with you. Have you checked out LiveJournal? Search Jeremy Brett and go to the community of the same name. Lovely posts and tributes there. :)
This is definitely the best version& JB's performance is exceptional,but disagree about Joanna David,I think her performance is also beautifully judged,there's a lot going on behind her glances. She captures The Girl's shock at the proposal v well-it's a full 5 seconds before she even blinks&she completely conveys her staggered reaction from the novel-'It was though the King asked one'.The balance between both their performances is fine-I wish we could see the whole series again,Brushgang4
We are so happy that everyone loves JB so much! :)Lovely to read your discussions. We think JB is the best Maxim, needless to say. Thank you brushgang4 & Verified1.
Yes, we do! Thank you very much for this putting up this clip especially JBrettsgirl; it's the only way I could have seen this series & I'm so happy to be able to see my favourite of all JB's performances again! Brushgang4
Still the best recorded performance of Rebecca, IMO. I love to watch it for JB of course, but Joanna David's performance is so often android-like with those catatonic stares she inserts from time to time. I assume these are meant to portray awkward innocence, but
5 dislikes? Really people? Get a life, lol.

Thank-you, thank-you for that scene!! I knew about the series but have never seen anything from it, it was amazing, Jeremy Brett was just so amazing!! fingers crossed for the dvd to be released at somepoint!! where did you get the clip from?? thanks again!!!
polgara79 3 years ago
Unfortunately, a dvd release is not likely. There are problems with the copyright for some reason, at least that is what they say. However, I will message you with some info that might help you. I couldn't agree with you more, Jeremy was simply amazing! :)
JBrettsgirl 3 years ago
**Thank you** for posting this scene! This is the first time I've seen *any* of this series, although I've been searching for it for ages (and I've loved the book for years and years). Why on earth isn't this version available on DVD?!
TeintDeNeige 3 years ago
You are welcome. :) I have just messaged you with info and I hope it helps. Copyright problems (at least that is what has been claimed), is the supposed reason for no new release of this gem. Thanks so much and we are happy you enjoyed it. :)

wouldn't Jeremy have made a wonderful Gatsby?
ikohoutek 3 years ago
Yes he would have. Also, a perfect Mr. Darcy and the best Phantom of the Opera. Well, I could go on and on..believe me. LOL
JBrettsgirl 3 years ago
I bet he made a great DeWinter. Is this available on dvd? I just love Jeremy Brett! My daughter and I saw the 1940 version of rebecca on TCM a little while ago and would love to see this one also. I bought The Good Soldier from Borders but they don't seem to have this one. That was good, by the way. Dark and sad, but a good story. Thanks for posting these clips for us!

Yes, Jeremy was a fantastic Maxim. The very best in my opinion. Happy you enjoyed it. Thank you!
JBrettsgirl 3 years ago
Yes, he's very good in this part--only a bit warmer and more likable than the Maxim of either the book or the original movie.

Sorry for the late reply. Yes, I will message you re where to find it. He was wonderful as Maxim. Have you seen 'Pitt'? He was amazing in that as well. Of course, he was an amazing man period. :)

JBrettsgirl - I'd be grateful if you would send me the information about where to find the whole production too. He was perfect for the part - better than Olivier by miles.

What a great job you have made of your webpage, have you considered setting up a website to honour Jeremy Brett.
And may I ask where can you purchase REBECCA from I have searched for the DVD for several years now but have never been successful.

I was 16 when I first saw this and wrote to PBS. I received a letter from Mr Brett himself and a signed photograph. I still have it today. I wish they would release this Mystery Series! Thanks for the memories!

Hi, JBrettsgirl! Thanks for posting this clip of a lovely, haunting tale, done so well by JB, a lovely, haunted man. It's as though someone got inside my head and filmed my dream of who Maxim de Winter should be. JB beautifully portrays his despair (on the hotel terrace, a tear tracing his cheek) hidden in a shell of insensitivity. In the post, the play of emotion is a wonder: fear, hope, relief, love. Only then is the vulnerable, sweet man inside the shell seen. Is the DVD anywhere for sale?
Bonnielupine 4 years ago
You are welcome, Bonnielupine. :) This is one of our favorites and we believe JB was perfect in it. Thank you, lovely to see you feel Jeremy fit it perfectly as well. I will have to message you about the dvd. I will get back to you soon. Many thanks... :)

But unfortunately I saw only those scenes in the YouTube :-( But this film so much interests me! Jeremy is playing so well in it! And he is soooo sweet in this scene!!!
Thank you very much!!! :-)

Happy you enjoyed it, Lulufluflu. :) Thank you for the lovely comment. Yes, he was splendid as Maxim as he was in his many other roles. He looked especially handsome in this as well. A beautiful man inside and out. What a fantastic smile he had, melts my heart every time. Many thanks again. :)

This is just words can't explain I was 13 years old when I first aw this series and fell in love JB and Maxim. I read the book at least once year and always see JB when doing so. Here's hoping one day the BBC will release it on dvd or VHS. you've made A 40 YEAR OLD VERY HAPPY THANKS

You'll enjoy it Mikomi91 trust me I certainly did. As soon as you start you'll won't want to stop reading til its done. (A bit of a warning though you'll most likely want ring the heroine's neck because of her hestation with Maxim and other characters that are in the book before you're through!)I did lol! Enjoy it its qute a ride!

That is one of the best lines in a movie ever, spoken by one of the best actors ever. JBrettgirl - thank you for posting the Rebecca clips, it is impossible to find this DVD - I would love to see the whole thing one day. Do they make men like JB anymore? He carries himself and moves so well, so very sexy. My, my, an amazing man. Thank you so much!

This is definitely the best version& JB's performance is exceptional,but disagree about Joanna David,I think her performance is also beautifully judged,there's a lot going on behind her glances. She captures The Girl's shock at the proposal v well-it's a full 5 seconds before she even blinks&she completely conveys her staggered reaction from the novel-'It was though the King asked one'.The balance between both their performances is fine-I wish we could see the whole series again,Brushgang4

Still the best recorded performance of Rebecca, IMO. I love to watch it for JB of course, but Joanna David's performance is so often android-like with those catatonic stares she inserts from time to time. I assume these are meant to portray awkward innocence, but
