Rebecca
Alfred Hitchcock's Rebecca won several accolades, including Academy Awards for Best Picture and Best Cinematography. The film follows a young woman who marries a charming and wealthy widower, only to learn that she must live in the shadow of his former wife, Rebecca, who died years earlier in a mysterious accident. Rebecca was Hitchcock's first American-made film.
The Kid
The Kid is a 1921 silent film starring Charlie Chaplin. This was Chaplin's first full-length feature, which he also wrote and directed. It follows the story of a tramp who raises an orphan as his own and is devastated when the orphanage comes to reclaim him. The Kid's soulful narrative is strong enough to carry the film despite its lack of sound.
