RIP Jennifer Jones (1919-2009)
I can’t take this. First Richard Todd, now Jennifer Jones. These two better not be forgotten at the Oscars In Memoriam. You know how they left out uber-important people like Dorothy McGuire and Anita Page previously. Such cretins with no respect for Hollywood history!
I’ve never been a Jennifer Jones fan but I love Duel in the Sun aka Lust in the Dust. What an amazing film! It has one of the most memorable cinematic endings I’ve ever scene. Personally I think her role as the Eurasian, Han Suyin nee Rosalie Elisabeth Kuanghu Chow, in Love is a Many- Splendor Thing should be remade but keep the song.
How could Jennifer Jones have dumped Robert Walker though? I suppose her second husband David O. Selznick had the money and/or was better in bed because Robert Walker was such a handsome and great actor.
While she wasn’t my favorite actress, I still want to see her in Cluny Brown.
Nice clip from Duel in the Sun
Now I may not have been alive when Bette Davis died……but this is horrible but im glad she lived a full life. It’s a blessing that she lived that long. What I can say is that…..When Angela Lansbury’s day comes….years and years and years from now….I will not be anymore good. There will never be another Kay ThornDyke and those hollywood tramps now better not set foot on a STATE OF THE UNION remake!
sorry……i just hate death.
My favorite actresses are Bette Davis, Angela Lansbury and Ida Lupino!

Did anyone watch TCM last night? There were 3 movies in honor of her: Beat the Devil, Madame Bovary, and something about Indiscreet Wife (..not sure about that title). She was so different in Beat the Devil, but Madame Bovary was just amazing! The other one was strange…..
