JENNIFER VS. INGRID

Best Actress, 1944
Talk about a graceful loser! Good friends Ingrid Bergman and Jennifer Jones were both nominated for Best Actress in 1944. When Jones won for The Song of Bernadette, she felt she had to apologize to her friend (nominated for playing Spanish war prisoner Maria in For Whom the Bell Tolls) who was sitting in the audience. The ever-classy Bergman responded: “No, Jennifer, your Bernadette was better than my Maria.” Jones repaid the compliment the next year, when she presented the Best Actress Oscar to Bergman for the latter’s winning performance in Gaslight.
