R.I.P. Joan Fontaine


British-American actress Joan de Beauvoir de Havilland -- also known as Joan Fontaine and best known for her Oscar-nominated role in the 1940 Hitchcock film Rebecca and her Oscar-winning role in the 1941 Hitchcock film Suspicion -- finally encountered the first Mrs. de Winter on December 15 at age 96. (Fortunately for Ms. Fontaine, Mrs. de Winter was a fictional character.)

In any event, Ms. Fontaine will be missed.
