To kick off the new year the Classics Club posted a list of 26 questions designed to help members consider their relationship with reading classics. I plan to answer one question every few weeks throughout 2026. #10 -Favourite movie or TV adaption of a classic?
The adaptation that immediately comes to mind as a favorite is the Hitchcock film based on Rebecca.
Released in 1940 the movie start Joan Fontaine and Laurence Olivier. It is gothic, and creepy, and dream-like, as is the novel, and the twists and turns of the plot are brilliantly depicted in the cinematography. The film got eleven academy award nominations, the most of any film that year, and won both Best Picture and Best Cinematography.
