Preferred time period in Gothics

[bronte]

I was just recently wondering about Mrs. Danvers. Was she mad or evil? Or both? Any opinions out there?

I think that Mrs. Danvers thought of Rebecca as the daughter she never had. I think that she became mad with grief after Rebecca died. I think that her anger would be directed at anyone who she thought would harm her memory of Rebecca. Did anyone one see the newer mini-series of Rebecca? The old Hitchcock movie was good and I've watch a couple of times but I think that the newer one was even closer to the book. The only person I remember from the new one is Faye Dunaway as the lady the main character is paid companion for when she meets Max.
