"Don't Look Now" made me hate red raincoats and short women... Okay, I love short women, but red macs are from the devil!

Not a dummy but probably not a big Hitchcock fan, She wrote Rebecca, The Birds, and Jamaica Inn all of which have been made into movies by Alfred Hitchcock. I have not read much of her work but what I have read I have enjoyed.

Besides Hitchock's strong adaptations, du Maurier also wrote the Novella "Don't Look Now" which was made into an excellent movie with Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie in the early Seventies.

Great to see CD putting this one out! It's long been a tough collection to find of hers and she's an excellent writer. I'd also recommend both the collections KISS ME AGAIN STRANGER and DON'T LOOK NOW.

I bet they are not selling at Wal Mart. I am guessing they will not stock them.

There was also a front page article intoday's USA Today about how publishers are printing books with curse words in the titles and they are really selling!

You remember correctly.
Incredible as it may seem (to me, at least), Sir Alfred never won an Academy Award for best director.
Don't best picture and best director go hand-in-hand?
Guess not.

You would normally think so. I just looked it up, and John Ford won best director for The Grapes of Wrath that year.

I recommend Rebecca, both the book and the movie. If I remember correctly it won an academy award for best picture.

I had to double check because I was not sure. It did win for best picture and best Cinematography but it was 1941. If I had not read the book and watched the movie there is no way I would have remembered it.

O! Now you're just trying to make me feel stupid
