Olivia de Havilland, 1916-2020


Recommended Posts

Olivia de Havilland, the dignified and dogged Oscar-winning actress and last surviving star of Gone With the Wind who feuded with sister Joan Fontaine, and bucked the old Hollywood studio system, died in her sleep on Saturday, July 25, Entertainment Weekly reports. She was 104.

Too bad, she was a joy in The Adventures of Robin Hood. RIP

That's always the movie I think of first whenever Ms. de Havilland's name comes up.  I've only seen GWTW once and I have never seen either of the two films for which she won Oscars.

If you like Robin Hood, you should check out 1935's Captain Blood, a classic swashbuckler that first paired de Havilland with Errol Flynn.

Rest peacefully, Ms. de Havilland, and thank you.
