Joan Fontaine

I remember her best from 'Rebecca' and 'Jane Eyre'. RIP

Re: Joan Fontaine

Rest in peace Joan. She was 96. I always enjoyed her polished performances, she was a real professional.

Re: Joan Fontaine

RIP Joan, didn't hear that she had died until now. She was a good actress
Sister to Olivia de Havilland who was older. Joans ancestry was interesting with her real name being also de Havilland and that family came from the Channel Islands. De Havilland was also her Granddads company which manufactured air planes.
Sibling rivalry for most of their lives Olivia and Joan haven't spoken for years. Too late now to make up
