Directed by: Alfred Hitchcock
Starring: Laurence Olivier, George Sanders, Joan Fontaine, Judith Anderson
Audio problem: When Maxim gives Mrs. De Winter the bunch of flowers, right after they are married, she says a few times "lovely", the last time she says it, her mouth is closed.
Audio problem: While the couple are watching their honeymoon films, a different Joan Fontaine voice can be heard; it is deeper, distorted. The voice says, "Ah, yes, that's very nice."
Other mistake: On the first morning at Manderlay, as the girl is leaving the dining room, she slips and nearly falls but Frith is there to catch her, but Frith was way into the dining room; there is no way he could have been close enough to catch her.
Maxim de Winter: Please promise me never to wear black satin or pearls... or to be 36 years old.
Trivia: When George Sanders pokes his head in the car window where the girl is, alone, he says "Marriage with Maxim is not exactly a bed of roses." Joan Fontaine, who played the girl, called her autobiography "No Bed of Roses."

Chosen answer: From the screenplay of "Rebecca" which I found on-line, and verified by looking at two different versions, the entirety of the line is: "By the way, what do you do with old bones? Bury them, eh what? However, for the time being - you know, Max, I'm getting awfully fed up with my job as a motor-car salesman."
