- To underscore the passivity of the female lead (and by comparison, amplify the role of Rebecca, who is never shown) Joan Fountain’s character is never actually named, other than as “the second Mrs. de Winters”.
Not sure that Hitchcock should get much credit for that b/c Daphne du Maurier never revealed the second Mrs. de Winters' name in the book either.

Fair enough. Maybe I left the wrong impression. I didn’t mean to give all the credit to Hitchcock. Heck, the movie was produced by Selznick, so I’m sure he deserves some credit, too!
Still, it’s in the list of Hitchcock films, which is a great list.
