Rebecca

1:50:00

''I've just seen the doctor and I'm going
down to Manderley right away.

1:50:03

''I shall be at the cottage all evening
and shall leave the door open for you.

1:50:07

I have something terribly
important to tell you. Rebecca. ''

1:50:11

Now, does that look like
the note of a woman who had made
up her mind to kill herself?

1:50:14

And apart from that, Colonel,
do you mean to tell me that
if you wanted to commit suicide,

1:50:17

you'd go to all the trouble
of putting out to sea in a boat,

1:50:20

then take a hammer and chisel
and laboriously knock holes
through the bottom of it ?

1:50:23

Come, Colonel,
as an offiicer of the law,

1:50:26

don't you feel there are some
slight grounds for suspicion ?

1:50:29

- Of murder ?
- What else ?

1:50:31

You've known Max a long time, so
you know he's the old-fashioned type...

1:50:35

who'd die to defend his honor
or who'd kill for it.

1:50:38

It's blackmail, pure and simple.

1:50:40

Blackmail's not so pure nor so simple.

1:50:42

It can bring a lot of trouble
to a great many people,

1:50:45

and the blackmailer sometimes fiinds
himself in jail at the end of it.

1:50:48

I see. You're going to hold
de Winter's hand through all this...

1:50:51

just because he's the big noise
around here and he's actually
permitted you to dine with him.

1:50:55

Be careful, Favell.
You've brought an accusation of murder.

1:50:57

- Have you any witnesses ?
- I do have a witness.

1:51:00

- Oh.
- It's that fellow Ben.

1:51:02

If that stupid coroner
hadn't been a snob,

1:51:04

- he'd have seen that half-wit
was hiding something.
- And why should Ben do that ?

1:51:07

Because we caught him once,
Rebecca and I, peering at us
through the cottage window.

1:51:10

Rebecca threatened him with the asylum.
That's why he was afraid to speak.

1:51:13

But he was always hanging about.
He must have seen this whole thing.

1:51:15

It's ridiculous
even listening to all this.

1:51:18

Ah. You're like a little trades union,
all of you, aren't you ?

1:51:21

And if my guess is right, Crawley,

1:51:23

there's a bit of malice
in your soul toward me, isn't there ?

1:51:26

Crawley didn't have
much success with Rebecca,

1:51:29

but he ought to have
more luck this time.

1:51:32

The bride will be grateful
for your fraternal arm, Crawley...

1:51:35

in a week or so.

1:51:37

- Every time she faints, in fact.
- De Winter!

1:51:39

- Maxim, please !
- De Winter !

1:51:41

That temper of yours
will do you in yet, Max.

1:51:44

[ Knock At Door ]

1:51:46

Oh, uh, excuse me, gentlemen.
Now, is there anything else ?

1:51:52

Yes. You might bring
Mr. de Winter a sedative.

1:51:55

-No, no, nothing at all. Just leave us.
-Very good, sir.
