Is Jeremys 1979 Rebecca mini-series broadcast anymore? Is it available on video?
“No” to both questions, unfortunately. A British home video website offered JB’s Rebecca for pre-order a few years ago, then abruptly announced that the film was “out of print” and could not be sold. And, I was informed by two TBE readers that JB’s Rebecca can neither be sold nor broadcast by the BBC because the network doesn’t own the video or broadcast rights to the film. Until the copyright ownership quandary is straightened out, I’m afraid that JB’s version of Rebecca will continue to languish in a vault somewhere. While this film isn’t “officially” available on video or DVD, privately recorded copies are sometimes offered on eBay. But, buyer beware: these are usually copies of copies that were originally recorded when Rebecca was broadcast on US television years ago.
