Alfred Hitchcock's masterful suspense and Daphne du Maurier's haunting storytelling make for the perfect Halloween combination!

This incredible gown takes center stage in part of the plot of the 1940 adaptation of Rebecca, where Joan Fontaine wears it as the second Mrs. de Winter.

But did you know this fantastic piece is not original to the film? It was designed for Greta Garbo as Marguerite Gautier in the 1936 film Camille. The stars on the skirt have been removed, and the bodice has been altered, but make no mistake, it's the same gown!

Don't believe me? Check out behind-the-scenes footage of costume tests, showing Joan Fontaine wearing the unaltered gown! bit.ly/VicEd138

hmm...

And my next #booktoscreen read was #rebecca by #daphnedumaurier I think I had the wrong impression of what this book was about before reading it. I had it in my head that this was gonna be a ghost story in an old creepy mansion. I was ready for hauntings and scares. This was not what this story was, so for me it was a disappointment. I still watched the movie though. It was good. Kristin Scott Thomas played her role as the mean house manager well. But though I tried to let them go, my original expectations marred how I felt. I was underwhelmed and disappointed. This is why I try not to know too much before I read or watch a movie usually. Oh well, what do you do? Onto the next book I go #bookstagram #movies #bookgeek #readersofinstagram #bookworm #readmorebooks #booknerd #bookish #movienight #books #bibliophile #bookaddict #bookaholic #bibliotherapy #read #reading https://www.instagram.com/p/CQP0St3r974/?utm_medium=tumblr

🤍 “Last night I dreamt I went to Manderley again.” Rebecca was quite a remarkable read for me. I loved the atmosphere of this book. It was deep, dark, mysterious. For me it was fascinating to be inside the head of the main character and perceive the world as she did. It created the right mood for this novel and helped us care about the events in the book. When I started this novel, I knew the main synopsis but tried to avoid any spoilers as much as possible. So while reading I wasn't even sure about this book genre and it helped a lot with additional tension, anticipation and nervousness. I think it's a good idea for me to leave it this way for you too. In my opinion, this book benefits from not knowing anything about it. Daphne Du Maurier is a master of prose for sure. She can write the novel the way it absorbs you completely and doesn't let you go till the final. I was engaged in reading from the very beginning and for me this book was truly a great page-turner. My final review is 8.5/10 for this novel. ��� “Happiness is not a possession to be prized, it is a quality of thought, a state of mind.”

I watched the Netflix adaptation of this last year with the wonderful @dora.bodrogi , so I already knew the story. But Daphne du Maurier’s writing style is so evocative that it pulls you immediately into the world of Manderley, with its mysteries and moral ambiguities. The story is reminiscent of Jane Eyre, with all the best hallmarks of gothic fiction: a dark, Byronic anti-hero, an ominous house haunted by its past, strange and mysterious fires. Despite the cliches, du Maurier’s writing kept me captivated - there’s a reason this novel is still a classic! I also loved the narrative decision to keep the protagonist nameless - it emphasised her dangerous obsession with Rebecca herself, and her constant fear that she will never be good enough. ~

Q: What’s a gothic story that you’ve read/watched recently and loved?

A: The Haunting of Bly Manor (based on Turn of the Screw) only arrived on Netflix last October and I’ve already watched it three times… That’s how good it is…
