I am a classic movie buff. I have about 20 of her movies on dvd. I corresponded with her for about 15 years when I was in the Navy. I have kept every letter that I received from her. I have 2 autographed pictures of her. One of them I sent to her and she sent it back personally autographed. She is the epitome of the word "actress" and "STAR". No actress today comes even close to her stature. What a wonderful lady and very gracious.
+yeomansue This is absolutely marvelous! Did you ever post or share any of your correspondence with Ms. de Havilland? I have never written her, but I definitely want to!!!
Amazing woman! She's still going strong at 103 years old! She's seen the world around her change, the stories she must have... I'd sit and listen to all of them.
Unbelievable. She has an incredible memory and is a beautiful woman.
A wonderful woman who stood the test of time in utmost dignity, and her efforts are being enjoyed by an admiring public, everywhere.
How could anyone on earth not have this woman as a must have dinner with and talk about everything! OLIVIA DE HAVILAND!!!!! PEOPLE THIS WOMAN IS ARGUABLY THE GREATEST ACTOR OF ALL TIME AND LAST STANDING
this world could benefit from great ladies of character, like Olivia!!!! Generous, humble, absolutely lovely!
She is amazing. Talented, brilliant, and graceful.
Olivia was such a lovely actress. I remember writing her a letter back in 1983 when she lived in Paris, France...I'm not sure she is still living there but she was so very gracious and kind enough to send me a beautiful note and autographed photo. I will forever treasure. Thank you for the interview upload.
What a true lady. So poised and sweet, graceful and gracious. Precious woman and fantastic talent.
Great and beautiful actress. Such a lady. Love her.
I love how she reenacts situations. Her impression of that lawyer is priceless.
I love the work of Olivia De Havilland. GWTW, The Heiress, and Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte are 3 of my favorite movies featuring her. She is still articulate and well-preserved. Happy 100th birthday Ms. De Havilland, and God bless you!
I recently saw Hush Hush Sweet Charlotte. What a classic and Ms. De Havilland is so cunning and cruel in that film. What a great actress and not just a pretty face.
What a great lady! God bless her! I hope she had a great birthday yesterday!
She is the oldest "Golden Age"actress still here with us.
She's dead now
Happy 100th Birthday Olivia! I remember as a young child in the 50's watching your movies. Oh how I miss movies of long ago!!! Stay Blessed!
Wow, what a legend. And what an amazing storyteller!

A Brilliant Actress. Thank you for all your movies.
I've always found her voice powerful. She is classy. But I think she's no one to mess with.
Love that she wanted to play Melanie; that's why she was so lovely in the film, she didn't see it as the inferior part.
A very elegant classy person, who wouldn't wish to dinner and talk with her. A very interesting person who God blessed her life. Olivia De Havilland you're an inspiration.
She is still here with us as of February 22, 2016.
***** Hopefully she does live that day then ya, :D
She still here with us one day before her 101 years birthday!
Sadly, Olivia De Havilland passed away on July 26, 2020, but left behind an incredibly beautiful body of work, which is a most wonderful thing.
Quite sad she and Joan never reconciled. I have to say I think Olivia was the better actress - more range, depth and talent, and as for looks, there's no contest. Joan was certainly attractive, quite pretty, but Olivia was simply stunning - those brown eyes were pure magic. She was (and presumably still is, at 99) - as evidenced here - wonderfully witty and intelligent. One of the Golden Age's greatest actresses and a true lady all the way. God bless her!
+James Vaughan I can't say agree about looks. Talent-yes, Joan was quite a natural actress who did not have the driving ambition Olivia had and Olivia was better-but had Joan continued with the same verve they may have become equal. But I think Joan was far more lovely than Olivia so it is a matter of perception.
+James Vaughan You nailed it! Joan also didn't have the class nor speak like a proper lady as Olivia did. She was the better actress and OMG what a Beauty. And look which one got a part in Gone With The Wind! Oh she was so amazing in her role
+swampmammytheone Olivia was indeed very good; only thing is, she got more and more mannered in carriage and inflection, more proper whereas Fontaine was earthier, on the level.
daniel stanwyck Funny, but for me it's precisely the other way around! I think Olivia was more "down to earth" (and intelligent) in her interviews, and Joan was increasingly affected in hers (sounding so teddibly upper-class British despite her American upbringing). I also think unquestionably Olivia had the better (and more varied) roles. Well, as auntdj111 said, it's a matter of perception.
James Vaughan Amen Olivia was the better of the 2....thank you so much..Joan was a hag with no looks, grace or talent..her roles weer all B movie BS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hush Hush Sweet Charlott!!!!
Wow what a compassionate intelligent person. I admire her
She's lovely to listen to
She is still alive today! 99

She is deceased, and has been, since July 26, 2020.
What a woman.and what wonderful experiences shes had.
Every Hollywood actor owes this woman very much
I know few people who can inspire such awe as Ms. Olivia de Havilland.
amen!!!!!
Hello!
Ms. De havilland is great no others compare! Awesome actress.....love her!
Wow ! to think Olivia out lived , if I am not mistaken ALL of the actors of the movie Gone With The Wind !!! Even the little girl who played Scarletts little daughter, Bonnie Butler !!!!!!
+Star buono yeah all of them died she was a supporting act and still alive
+amy Clarke Yeah, and May God grant her much much more years !!!!
No, Mickey Kuhn (who plays Melanie's son Beau in the film) is also still alive.
Mickey Kuhn actually survived Olivia; as of October 17, 2022, he's alive at age 90.
Elegant, intelligent and articulate. The epitomy of a true lady.... Excellent at her craft. She was good friends with another legend.....Bette Davis. I don't think we'll ever see the likes of women like these again. Women that combine femininity, strength and intellect so well and seamlessly.
"I didn't refuse, I declined" lmao
Wonderful, I love this woman.
She is a class act. I hope she has a wonderful 100th birthday on July 1st.
Happy 100th Birthday Ms. de Havlilland! Wow!!
She is adorable!
90 years plus in this video. On 7/1/2016 - 100 years old. TCM's Star of the Month this July. The Heiress her best work. Light in the Piazza is a gem too.
Yes I agree, The Heiress was her finest ever and IMO it's one of the finest movies ever made - everyone was outstanding. William Wyler had a reputation of bringing out the best in an actor and it certainly shows there!
thanks cameronpaul........always fun to hear from someone. The Best Years of Our Lives is my favorite movie....hm...I wonder why. I read that Monty Clift didn't like WW, too controlling, not Method like Clift liked. But these two movies are full of "greatest scenes" in my mind. Thanks
Always so beautiful! Even now as an elderly lady, so beautiful!

she's very impressive !!!!!
The Heiress is one of my all time favorite films. Authentic sets, music, costumes, dances, horses & carriages and a perfect cast make for a fascinating story that I never tire of watching, and I've seen it many times. It makes one feel you are actually living in 1850s New York City. I can't praise it enough, and Olivia de Havilland's performance is superb. Her character changing from mild and meek to bitter and determined is breathtaking. My favorite line: "I can be very cruel. I've been taught by masters." Wow! Looking forward to reading about her upcoming 100th birthday on July 1, 2016, and the many tributes she deservedly will receive. I wish some people would stop with the bitchy sibling rivalry remarks. That has become very boring. Most families experience a bit of that. So what? I love Olivia de Havilland and thank her for all the pleasure I've derived from her many great performances. She's irreplaceable!
The Heiress is one of my favourite films too - Olivia gave an awesome performance as did Mirium Hopkins one of my all time favourite actresses from that era. Great film the sewing of the tapestry and the final cutting of the thread sent shivers up my spine so very clever and significant
still a wonderful lady.
The recounting of the scene with the 'gimlet-eyed' Warner Bros lawyer is SO funny!
She Is Beautiful Love ❤️ Her Old Hollywood One Of The Greatest Actress Ever
On watching this , I find that this lady is indeed fascinating ! playful , sexy , ( if i may say that ) and coy. She has am amazing memory , her tale about meeting Errol Flynn, certainly she sounds like she fancied him like crazy and was overwhelmed by his beauty at that time .
...an intelligent honorable person, who has managed to present her challenges without the "loose cannon" anger we have seen from current celebrities of the last 50 years. Civility, dont leave home with out it........
Well-stated.
Happy 100th birthday. A screen icon.
Adore her
My youth is in my hearth , I do not look my age , Thanks God
Down to earth , like her to be in a movie or a tv show (downton would have been nice)
She is 101 now!!
Amazing! Happy 100th
Wow! I did not know that even though Olivia won her court case against Warner Bros that it had an adverse effect for those returning from war that they were able to renegotiate new contracts & weren't forced by an the old law that required an actor/writer/producer/director ect to give more time than their contracts allowed simply by saying that they were on suspension (Not getting paid) and therefore owed the studios as they were unable to fulfil their original contracts at their original salary. Their salary/worth was worth a lot at the time say 5yrs earlier & now the studio could get out of having to pay more by forcing them to work for them longer.
She is 40 years older than I am, and she has a far better memory! I remember seeing GWTW in a 1960s rerelease, and I was overcome by Melanie’s death.
Such a lovely lady they would destroy her today if she tried to stand up for anything she believed In God bless her I’m glad I was able to see her performances throughout the years
Shes 103 now
She's dead now and has been for over two years.
And still here Sept. 29 , of 2017
AMEN !!!!! 2018 102 !!!!!
Happy 101st birthday!
She was 90 years old when she did this interview .
And, as you can see, was sharp as a tack. We should all be so lucky to have all our faculties in such fine order at age 90. I can hope, anyway, lol.
EVERY female actress in hollywood and across the world wanted the scarlet role, saying she turned down the lead in the largest most anticipated movie, at that time, in the history of movie making is absurd. look at some documentaries, i have.
She explained precisely why she took the challenge of Melanie instead, and she doesn't appear to suffer any regret, nor waste time on others' feelings of shock that she declined the role of Scarlett.
She is breathtakingly beautiful.
I like her...!!! :)
Michele Michael* got chives. 3333wwsszz.
what's not to like a great lady !!!!!
omg the fact that she's 99
Still with us 2019 at 102
RIP Olivia!
Thurs ,June,30,2016--- Get Ready! Tomorrow is her 100th Birthday!
yes! wonderful lady!!
A class act for all time❤
#happyBirthday100 #july1st2016 #evvivalaDiva
When Hollywood had true patriots in their mist, Jimmy Stewart and Clark Gable etc.
She picked the best role ❤️
Unbelieveable that the studios thought they could get away with ripping actors off. They were such hypocrites back then, (putting actors who left to fight in the war on suspension and then holding them to contracts they signed before they left). ALL the studios during that time made war movies supposely in support of the war effort, and then turn around and "suspend" those under contract who left the studio to fight in it, CRAZY. ALL the actors should have gone to the press about what they were doing to them. With her De Havilland Decision she helped thousands in the film industry get fair contracts. A "working-man/womans hero" she was and perhaps Olivia's greatest "role" of all
R.I.P Olivia

What does the French phrase "coup de frood" mean???
RIP
Fiddle de dee, Melanie. I did "bed yor man". And you chose, I say, chose to "forgive". Yes, indeedy.
WTF is keeping her alive?!! It must be WITCHCRAFT! (grin, jk)
Now, would anybody like a nice cup of hot chocolate? ☕☕☕☕☕☕☕☕☕☕☕☕☕☕☕☕☕☕☕☕☕☕☕☕☕☕☕☕Please take one. ☺☺
What did Olivia do to her hair?
Her hair looks fantastic. We all will go gray or pure white at the age she was in this video, if indeed we succeed in living that long.
Why hasn't she hooked up with Norman Lloyd? Is the age difference too big?
How old was she here
90
why she sued WB?
Because of the studios insanely restrictive contracts at the time. Bette Davies did the same www.latimes.com/opinion/op-ed/la-oe-stipanowich-de-havilland--20160701-snap-story.html
She is the screaming woman!😄😄😄😐
