REBECCA (1940) is such a great example that the title character never even appears on screen. The entire movie revolves around Rebecca de Winter’s presence, yet the story is really about the unnamed second Mrs. de Winter trying to escape her shadow.

A chinchilla coat valued at $25,000 was loaned to appear in Rebecca's closet. Nobody actually wears it in the movie. It is one of the items Mrs. Danvers shows to the second Mrs. de Winter. Rebecca (1940) #Hitchcock

AKIRA (1988) might be the ultimate example of a movie where the title character isn’t the lead. Akira’s name is on the poster, but Kaneda and Tetsuo carry the story while Akira remains an almost mythical presence hanging over the entire film.

Rebecca De Mornay on what makes her character in "The Hand That Rocks the Cradle" (1992) memorable: "I was scared out of my mind by some scenes in "The Hand That Rocks the Cradle" (1992). I was deeply disturbed by the character I was portraying. There is a lack of great roles for women, and this is definitely a great role. I really went out on a limb with this film. But after I read the script, I was haunted by it. I intuitively felt that I could make a real contribution to the film, that I could deepen this character with humanity. After all, a villain is really only interesting when three-dimensional, and it's rare you play a villain who comes with some inbuilt sense of sympathy." (Rebecca De Mornay's interview with Jamie Portman, Calgary Herald, 1991)

Over twenty actresses were screentested for the role of Mrs. de Winter, which eventually went to newcomer Joan Fontaine. One of them was Vivien Leigh, for whom Laurence Olivier was pressing, as they were a couple at the time. Rebecca screen test (1939)

I was trying to hold it in but… This is literally the look of awe. I genuinely think this is when it really hit Freen that “If no one else loves her Rebecca will” I’m not saying she didn’t believe her the other times she’s said it because I think each time she heard Rebecca make the declaration it healed her heart a little more. I’m saying that Freen was at her lowest when Rebecca made those declarations and the world was hazy from her pain so Freen wasn’t really processing everything completely. She’s happy now, she’s healing, and she can see the love that’s in front of her clearly now. Before she hinted Rebecca was grown and could take care of her, but after watching Rebecca enter the stage with the biggest grin carrying that bouquet, I think she KNOWS Rebecca can take care of her now ❤️

This speech being so close to the original makes it such a great example of history done right on screen! Full doc is linked below.

Rebecca is living proof that "polite" doesn't mean "nice." She really walked into his house and gave a masterclass on how to shut down a $50M problem. When she said "Don't you dare," I felt that through the screen.

Bad Times at the El Royale is a really fun movie. Great ensemble cast filled with great performances & an unpredictable script to keep you engaged the whole way through. Chris Hemsworth stands out in particular- yet another example that this guy’s acting is severely underrated.

Pam Grier in Jackie Brown (1997) is a masterclass in quiet authority. Tarantino built the role specifically around her, reshaping Elmore Leonard’s character to fit Grier’s history and screen presence.

This is the play that Bueckers was concussed on. Vandersloot is the guarding her. And it doesn’t even look like Angel Reese is on the floor, and yet she get named in the title.

Alfred Hitchcock on why "Rebecca" (1940) isn't a Hitchcock picture: "Hitchcock: "Rebecca" (1940) is not a Hitchcock picture; it's a novelette, really. The story is old-fashioned; there was a whole school of feminine literature at the period, and though I'm not against it, the fact is that the story is lacking in humor. Truffaut: Maybe so, but it does have the merit of simplicity(...). Anyway, this was your first American project and I imagine you must have felt a little intimidated at the idea of undertaking it. Hitchcock: Well, not exactly, because in fact it's a completely British picture: the story, the actors, and the director were all English. I've some times wondered what that picture would have been like had it been made in England with the same cast. I'm not sure I would have handled it the same way. The American influence on it is obvious. First, because of Selznick, and then because the screenplay was written by the play wright Robert Sherwood, who gave it a broader viewpoint than it would have had if made in Britain." ("Hitchcock/Truffaut", Truffaut, 1985) P.S: On this day, 86 years ago, "Rebecca" (1940) premiered in Miami, Florida, USA.

In Chuck, Sarah Walker is the kind of character you instantly develop a crush on the moment she appears. She has this effortless beauty, and an almost angelic presence that makes her impossible to look away from.
