Via LA Times:
Joan Fontaine, the coolly beautiful 1940s actress who won an Oscar for her role in Alfred Hitchcock’s “Suspicion” and who became almost as well-known for her lifelong feud with her famous older sister, Olivia de Havilland, has died. She was 96.
Fontaine died Sunday of natural causes at her home in Carmel, said her assistant, Susan Pfeiffer.
