Joan won her only Oscar for her superb portrayal of a young wife who suspects her husband is trying to kill her. Could Cary Grant really do something like that? Only Hitchcock would know!

Joan gives another superb performance in a film that has been described as one of the most romantic ever made.

Joan brings her stunning beauty and elegance to this wonderful swash buckler with an all star cast as Lady Rowena. It's no surprise that Bob picks her over Liz!

Another fine performance from Joan as part of an all star cast in one of the most controversial films of the decade even though she doesn't get to smooch Harry!

Joan's last theatrical release was this excellent horror film from 1966 as part of a trend where many great female stars were getting terrorised on screen. This is one of the best films in the genre.

Another rare foray into comedy with James Stewart. Joan was expecting her daughter Debbie while filming this movie.

Joan's most unusual leading man would have to be Mario Lanza! Here Joan's at her glamorous, bitchy best messing with Lanza's mind and affections.

Although she's only a supporting player in this classic actioner, Joan is at her delightful best.

One of Joan's most unusual films is this low budget affair on the subject of bigamy! Joan's the first wife with the film's director Ida Lupino as her rival for husband Edmund O'Brien.

Joan's last acting role was in this television film.
