Title: RIP Joan FONTAINE
Post by: Raffine on December 16, 2013, 06:16:03 PM
Joan Fontaine, who won a Best Actress Oscar for Hitchcock's SUSPICION, has died at 96.

Her older sister Olivia de Havilland, who also won an Oscar, is still around.

TCM released their 2013 In Memoriam' last week. They are really gonna have to revise it now.

TCM also neglected to include PAUL WALKER (I think) in this year's TCM Remembers tribute.  CHARLES DURNING and JACK KLUGMAN both died Christmas Eve last year, and were included in this year's tribute.

Such a shame! I loved a lot of her films but my favorite will always be "Rebecca".

Cool.  This version, posted here by me has since been edited by TCM to include JOAN FONTAINE and PETER O'TOOLE, who ends the last edit blowing out a match (from LAWRENCE OF ARABIA).  The latest and last version I've seen still neglects PAUL MANTEE (who died early in November) and PAUL WALKER, Novermber 30.
