Rebecca: Difference between revisions

* [[The Unfair Sex]]: Massive subversion; {{spoiler|Rebecca was a sociopathic bitch who cheated on Maxim with a series of lovers, and wasn't even loyal to them either. Our young heroine, who had earlier aspired to be just like her predecessor, is glad that she's dead.}}

* [[Unreliable Narrator]]: The second Mrs de Winter describes herself as plain, a bit foolish, and makes out she's not very emotionally strong. Other characters regularly comment on her prettiness, and she is clearly both intelligent and emotionally strong underneath her shyness.

* [[Upper Class Wit]]: Maxim gets decidedly snarky at the inquest. Not the cleverest tack to take when the police are suggesting you killed your wife...

* [[Villain with Good Publicity]]
