<p> DIED. JEAN NEGULESCO, 93, film director; in Marbella, Spain.
Originally a painter, Negulesco broke into film in the '40s
with such dark Warner Bros. melodramas as Humoresque (1947),
starring Joan Crawford and John Garfield, and Johnny Belinda
(1948), a frank tale of disability, rape and revenge that earned
a dozen Oscar nominations, including one for Best Director.
But while this early work is Negulesco's most accomplished,
the Romanian-born auteur achieved his greatest fame directing
some of the frothiest films of the '50s for 20th Century Fox,
including How to Marry a Millionaire (1953) and Three Coins
in a Fountain (1954).
