Written by Jane Goldman, and Joe Shrapnel & Anna Waterhouse (Seberg) - yes, one of those credits, Wheatley's version of du Maurier is proficient and watchable. The characters have more nuance than in the Hitchcock version, particularly Kristen Scott Thomas' Danvers, but also the cute-nosed Lily James as - what the hell is her name?? Armie Hammer's Max, Keeley Hawes his sister.. then the casting drops a notch with various familiar types in supporting roles.
Nicely shot by Wheatley regular Laurie Rose (who also shot series three of Peaky Blinders) in Panavision, music from Clint Mansell, edited by Jonathan Amos (Paddington 2, Baby Driver, Attack the Block, Scott Pilgrim).
Netflix / Working Title.
