Date Sold 1/24/2012Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Preston Foster was an actor from the 1920s to the 1960s. Some of his movies include: The Informer, I Shot Jesse James, Last Days of Pompeii, and North West Mounted Police AND Joan Fontaine was an actress from the 1930s to the 1990s. One would have thought that Joan Fontaine, being the talented and beautiful sister of established star Olivia De Havilland, would have quickly achieved fame herself. However, she came to Hollywood in 1934, and only appeared in one movie in 1935. It was two years later, after she changed her name to Joan Fontaine, that she started appearing in lots of movies, but it was not until 1940's "Rebecca" (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film) and 1941's "Suspicion" (winner of the Best Actress Academy Award for this film) that she became a major star! As noted above, she was the sister of Olivia De Havilland, and they had a decades-long feud (sadly, there is no longer any hope of a reconciliation, because Miss Fontaine passed away in 2013 at the age of 96). Important Added Info: Note that this really cool candid shows major star Preston Foster having a beach barbeque (of roasted piglet) with a group of his "young friends". Those friends are Barbara Pepper, Joan Fontaine, Smith Ballew, Maxine Jennings, Phil Huston, June Hamilton, and Erik Rhodes. Not only does it strike me as odd that this 36 year-old major star is hanging out with these teenagers and early 20s actors and actresses at Christmas time, but it is really cool that Joan Fontaine was a complete unknown at this time who had only appeared in one movie (and not as "Joan Fontaine")!
