:51:05
Where did they fiind her ?
:51:09
Near Edgecombe, about 40 miles
up channel, about two months afterwards.
:51:13
Maxim went up to identify her.
It was horrible for him.
:51:18
Yes, it must have been.
:51:24
Mr. Crawley, please don't
think me morbidly curious.
:51:27
It isn't that. It's just
that I feel at such a disadvantage.
:51:31
All the time,
whenever I meet anyone,
:51:33
Maxim's sister
or even the servants,
:51:35
I know they're all
thinking the same thing.
:51:37
They're all comparing me
with her, with Rebecca.
:51:40
Oh, you mustn't think that.
:51:42
I can't tell you how glad I am
that you've married Maxim.
:51:45
It's going to make
all the difference to his life.
:51:47
And from my point of view,
it's very refreshing...
:51:49
to fiind someone like yourself
who's not entirely in tune,
:51:52
shall we say, with Manderley.
:51:55
That's very sweet of you.
I dare say I've been stupid,
:51:59
but every day I realize
things that she had and that I lack:
:52:04
beauty and wit and intelligence...
:52:07
and, oh, all the things that
are so important in a woman.
:52:11
But you have qualities
that are just as important--
:52:13
more important, if I may say so.
:52:15
Kindliness and sincerity...
:52:17
and, if you'll forgive me, modesty...
:52:21
mean more to a husband than
all the wit and beauty in the world.
:52:24
We none of us want to live
in the past. Maxim least of all.
:52:28
It's up to you, you know,
to lead us away from it.
:52:32
Well, I promise you
I won't bring this up again,
:52:36
but before we end
this conversation...
:52:39
would you answer
just one more question ?
:52:42
If it's something
I'm able to answer, I'll do my best.
:52:47
Tell me, what was Rebecca really like ?
:52:59
I suppose--
