Olivia de Havilland, the last surviving star of "Gone with the Wind," has died

Incredible at 104. She was great with Errol Flynn. Great movies.

Very sad. RIP.

 

She was also in the very first Color Movie that same year in Robin Hood starring with Errol Flynn.......She was the last of the great Movie Queens of the Golden Age ......

 

Although I am not a big fan of the Confederacy, GONE WITH THE WIND was one of the great films of all time. Olivia was asked to audition for the part of Scarlett, but when she read the script, she decided to try for the part of Melanie. The rest is history...

 

Absolute legend. One of the reasons my daughter is named Olivia. Angel wings. Rest In Peace Olivia.


Not sure my broken up Evil Knievel body can take 104 years....

 

She was related to the family that owned the DeHavilland Aircraft Company.

 

She also owned a very nice buick convertible back in the day.

 

...especially that crane-mounted camera pullback Atlanta train depot recreation. As for Margaret Mitchell's novel about the "Lost Cause" south, not so much...

 

Hopefully she had as good of a life as she had long. God's speed....

 

I think she did.
