Amazingly, Joan Fontaine was the only actor or actress to win an Oscar in a film directed by Alfred Hitchcock.

She deservedly won Best Actress for the 1941 film Suspicion.

I love her performance in this film - what makes it even more impressive is the fact that she and Cary Grant didn’t exactly get along. I’ve always thought it had to be horrible to act like you love someone you don’t even like!

RED DUST, directed by Victor Fleming, starring Clark Gable, Jean Harlow and Mary Astor premiered on October 22, 1932. #OnThisDay

This is to remind you to see “Letter From an Unknown Woman.” (1948). Based on the novella by Stefan Zweig and directed by Max Ophüls, it stars Joan Fontaine in her greatest performance, and Louis Jourdan, looking like an Alcibiades re-born. A bittersweet love story set in 19th Century Vienna, the usually caustic Bosley Crowther of The New York Times wrote on it release: "This beautifully put-together picture about the unrequited love of a girl for a young concert pianist is an onslaught on the heart-strings, glimpsed between velvet curtains and scented with scattered rose leaves." Fontaine never looked so lovely and the film is a luxurious swathe of emotion, and so beautifully self-contained that, were it not for Ophüls’s choreographed camera movement, it might have been filmed in a crystalline snow globe. Not seeing this film is like going to the Louvre and not seeing the Mona Lisa.

The pre-Code romantic drama film, Red Dust, was released in cinemas nationwide across the United States on this day, October 22, 1932.

Directed by Victor Fleming and starring Clark Gable, Jean Harlow, Mary Astor, and Gene Raymond.

Red Dust is based on the 1928 play of the same name by Wilson Collison, and was adapted for the screen by John Mahin. It is the second of six movies Gable and Harlow made together. More than 20 years later, Gable starred in a remake, Mogambo (1953), with Ava Gardner starring in a variation on the role Harlow played and Grace Kelly playing a part similar to one portrayed by Astor in Red Dust.

Barbara Stanwyck. What a brilliant actress and remarkable woman she was.

[Royally Sage @sage1411]

Harry’s claim that people are mad because he told “his story”. No bitch, you lied about people, violated their privacy, encouraged their bullies, and monetized off it. William is justified at keeping you at arms length. Leave his kids alone.

I’ve said this a million times and I will say it again. Thank goodness William was the first born.

[Harry, Meghan’s Spare @ViQueenie]

“Someone like me, if you’re sitting back staying quiet, keeping low, the stories don’t stop,” he says. He has been “really criticized for telling my story,” he complains, adding: “everybody else is allowed to tell their version of my story, but God forbid I should be able to tell the other side of it. Just by telling my own story, it takes away a lot of power from other people.”

~Harry Mountbatten Windsor, GQ~

Oh, Harry. Here we go again with the victim narrative. 🙄

You complain that “everybody else is allowed to tell their version of my story.”

I’m sorry, H, but when exactly have Prince William, Princess Catherine, or King Charles publicly told YOUR story? Last I checked, they’ve remained remarkably silent while you and your wife have spent years airing your grievances for the entire world to hear.

And if you’re referring to the press, Harry, that’s literally their job! They report on the interviews, accusations, revelations and endless drama YOU and your wife willingly put into the public domain.

You wrote an entire memoir, sat for countless interviews and participated in a Netflix docuseries airing your family’s private affairs. Yet somehow, when the press reports on YOUR words, you’re the victim?

The problem isn’t that others are telling your story, Harry. It’s that you and your wife have skin as thin as cellophane and cannot tolerate anyone questioning your version of events.

You don’t want to control your story. You want to control the narrative, the criticism AND everyone else’s right to respond.

That’s not telling your truth. That’s demanding the last word. Spare me!

Prince Harry is the worst kind of hypocritical dunce gaslighter - drags his own family through the dirt and now preaching about wanting to "reconcile". And no mention at all of his father-in-law, Thomas Markle, because he's too poor to "reconcile" with.

https://t.co/w3IO0twGDY

[Link Lauren @itslinklauren]

Now that the money’s dried up he wants to reconcile. This is typical narcissistic behavior. Harry says they wronged him, when he’s the one who trashed his family in the press for years and tried to bring them all down. Now, Poor Little Harry wants Daddy and Big Brother to make amends with… him? He should apologize to them. Will be discussing on tomorrow’s podcast. 🙈🫤

[Princess CarParkle 👑 @unreMARKLEble]

When #HarryandMeghan quit their jobs and moved to Montecito, it was virtually impossible for them to fail yet they managed to find a way. They had unlimited doors open to them that talented, worthy, hardworking people who’ve shed blood, sweat and tears for one opportunity will never get the chance to even try to open.
All they had to do? Lay low and shut their mouths.
But no. The first thing they did? Oprah-where they lied, exaggerated, blamed and accused, airing familial dirty laundry that never should have seen the light of day. Not one fact check-Oprah just sat there never challenging one statement. Instead of making them look like “brave survivors”, that interview showed them as ungrateful, entitled, petty, untrustworthy liars who betrayed an elderly grandmother. They threw out accusations of racism without a shred of evidence, offering zero credible proof. That was the first huge mistake-but they were chomping at the bit to run their mouths.

On Feb 19, 2021 Buckingham Palace announced that the Harkles would NOT be returning as Working Royals. The Oprah interview aired on March 7, 2021 but was recorded on Feb 16, 2021. I imagine that the Queen learned of the interview and cut the cord before the March 31, 2021 deadline because she KNEW.

But that was just the start of their epic failure. #MeghanMarkle #PrivateCitizenMeghanMarkle #PrivateCitizenHarry

"Despite attempts to silence him"—said about a man who has had a prime-time Oprah special, a multi-part Netflix series, a global book tour for a 400-page memoir, and endless magazine features. If that is what being silenced looks like, heaven help us if he ever finds his voice.
