Jennifer Jones 1919-2009
It was with some sadness that I read today of the death of the actress Jennifer Jones at the age of 90. A nervous and mentally fragile performer, she gave some memorable performances in films over four decades, but of course to me , she would always be best remembered as the widow that fell out of the scenic elevator in The Towering Inferno
Portrait of Jennie, Duel in the Sun, The Song of Bernadette, Love Is a Many Splendoured Thing, Since You Went Away and a particularly good Madame Bovary...Jennifer Jones was probably one of the most under-rated actors of her generation
She died of natural causes at her home on December 17, 2009. I too was a fan.
ReplyDeleteSad news, a lovely actress.
