This being an election year I thought it the right time to run this pic while I lay in bed hoping to eventually feel normal again.
Sometime in the early sixties Joan Fontaine tells a joke to Adlai Stevenson and gets a hearty laugh. According to LIFE magazine, which originally ran the photo, she wouldn't divulge what the joke was, saying it wasn't appropriate. Hmmm. I'm betting it had something to do with Khrushchev's testicles. Or that Zorin guy. Apparently LIFE was not as persistent as Stevenson in demanding to know the joke and was not prepared to wait until hell froze over. Also, I bet Joan said "No" in a kinda, sorta scary way.
