my newest favorite book is Rebecca by Daphne de Maurier but it’s even better because the 1940 Alfred Hitchcock film adaptation is free on YouTube. It feels very Lana del Rey and cool.
Incredibly stylish movie. Gorgeous b&w, the score, the glamor, the fantasy, the ending. I watch it whenever I want to feel like the lady of the manor. Gothic country house noir comfort movie.
My favorite Hitchcock — dark comedy, 1955
Have watched it so many times
Shirley MacLaine's first movie. Thanks younginvert for the rec that got me thinking of it.
Edmund Gwenn is an absolute delight.
because life is more than what you do to pay bills, and no one deserves to feel unsafe and underpaid in a work place (yes i am terrified but it’s okay)
i don’t want to have a “thick skin” about everything, maybe we should all just be nicer to each other. when did we come up with the concept that being sensitive is bad? i’m sensitive and i like it. the world doesn’t have to hit me and i just get back up, maybe i will cry a little bit.
