I was thrilled when TCM showcased her for 24 hours, I especially liked Portrait of Jennie, Madame Bovary, The Barretts Of Wimpole Street and I really liked Love Letters, TCM should play these movies more often!

Campy, but perfect. There's no camp in her great work in Carrie, a good movie that has been sadly neglected. I agree that Jones was perfect in DULE IN THE SUN. Campy, but perfect.

She was playing a particular character and she did it to perfection. Jennifer Jones was magnificent in DUEL IN THE SUN. I don’t find her work in that movie exaggerated.

I've added a comment on the Marion Davies Syndrome (re: the lack of critical appreciation of Jennifer Jones' talent) to the post. Thanks for writing.

I'm already looking forward to the event on TCM on Monday August 17. The jury has been out on a decision of the talent of Miss Jones, but she is a great actress. Of course, she had some excellent roles but what actor could have gone from westerns at Republic Studios to a beautifully acted "Song of Bernadette", and "Portrait of Jennie" to fixing the plumbing in a kitchen sink in "Cluny Brown". ....a young girl in love in "Since You Went Away" to the sexy half breed Pearl in "Duel In The Sun". Yep, it is about time the public at large saw the greatness in her performances. She is not the most beautiful of women but her roles and look on the screen blew me away.
