Much of the greatness of America, in my honest Australian opinion, lies in the First Amendment.
In this God-given life of ours, addressing or solving most of our problems requires discussion.
For quality discussion to happen, speech must be free.
Jennifer Jones was a Hollywood star with an industrialist husband, Norton Simon, when she lost her only daughter to suicide.
She set up the Jennifer Jones Simon Foundation to support education for mental health.
God Bless Freedom
It lets us be the best we can be.

Socialist Left governed Australia needs to learn from you.
Their son looked just like him.
That’s the first one of hers to come to my mind (at the moment, the only one, brain is in delay mode). Both she and Cotton were excellent.
Jennifer Jones’ 1st husband Robert Walker was in “Strangers on a Train” and “Thirty Seconds over Tokyo”. Her son Robert Walker Jr was in the Star Trek TOS episode “Charlie X”.
Jennifer Jones became known for her role in the movie “Song of Bernadette” — about Mary’s apparitions at Lourdes.
“Song of Bernadette”, 1943.
She starred as a very young, and beautiful, woman as Bernadette Soubirous in The Song of Bernadette, a 1943 feature motion picture about the miracle of Our Lady of Lourdes and related subsequent events. It’s very good, well acted. Vincent Price has a prominent role as the Imperial Prosecutor and is very entertaining. Catholics of any age will find it inspiring. A high quality video version is easily found and watched on YouTube.
Great movie.
Obviously I agree.
Girl next door type.
also starred with William Holden in “Love is a Many Splendored Thing”
I’ll always remember her as the impulsive (and blonde) fabulist in the parody caper movie “Beat the Devil.” She was the perfect comic foil.
I agree. I saw ‘Portrait of Jennie’ when I was a kid. ‘Haunting’ is a good description. Made in an age that is gone.
Ditto. Beautiful Debussy music. Beautiful photography. The artist’s canvas look given to various scenes. Philosophy and quotes from poets and the characters themselves. Like you said, haunting. Joseph Cotton is also one of my favorite actors.

Twelve Oscar nominations, a bunch of wins. Practically swept the Golden Globes. Hollywood couldn’t croak out a similar (smiling on the One True Faith) film these days. That said, The Passion of the Christ: Resurrection, due out in 2024, looks very promising, based on interviews with Mel Gibson. Gibson’s treatment of what Catholics refer to as Christ’s harrowing of hell promises to be fascinating, astonishing. Every man and woman in the bible that died justified was brought out of the Bosom of Abraham by Christ, who that day gave them all glorious entry into heaven and the beatific vision. The creative opportunities for the right scriptwriters/director/producer are unlimited. Gibson really looks like he’s putting his heart, spirit and soul into the project.

A good, brief bio in about 50 lines gives a sense of the super high-voltage environment that surrounded the life of this shy woman from Tulsa, Oklahoma.
