Born in Japan to British parents, Joan and her older sister Olivia de Havilland moved to the US to pursue acting careers.
Joan Fontaine won an Oscar as a vulnerable wife in the movie Suspicion in 1942.
Alfred Hitchcock also cast Joan Fontaine in the lead role in his first Hollywood work Rebecca.
Her other films included The Constant Nymph, Jane Eyre and Letter from an Unknown Woman.
