Just saw that Jennifer Jones, who got her start as Phylis Isley in New Frontier (1939) with John Wayne, has passed away at 90.
She won as Oscar for The Song Of Bernadette (1943) and starred in David O. Selznick’s mammoth Western Duel In The Sun (1946, that’s her with Gregory Peck), which brought with it another Oscar nomination. She’d marry Selznick in 1949.
Her full obituary can be found here. What’s more, Greenbriar Picture Shows has an excellent series of posts about her.
