duaneiac Posted July 26, 2020 Report Posted July 26, 2020 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. https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/olivia-de-havilland-obituary-160403489.html Quote
Matthew Posted July 26, 2020 Report Posted July 26, 2020 Too bad, she was a joy in The Adventures of Robin Hood. RIP Quote

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. Quote
JSngry Posted July 26, 2020 Report Posted July 26, 2020 I like that they named the motor oil after her, RIP. Quote
Milestones Posted July 26, 2020 Report Posted July 26, 2020 A long life indeed. The Heiress, based on a Henry James novel, is probably my favorite among her films; and it's one of her Oscar-winning performances. R.I.P. Quote

RIP 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. Quote
