How Netflix's 'Rebecca' ending is different from the book

Daphne du Maurier's 1938 gothic novel Rebecca has been adapted almost a dozen times between multiple films, television productions, and radio shows. The best known adaptation is Alfred Hitchcock's Rebecca (1940), which won the Academy Award for Best Picture and famously changed the ending of the book to please censors who insisted the plot's central murder be changed to an accident.
