Lorraine Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 She and Mammy were the only two that had any sense in Gone With The Wind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treeduck Posted July 1, 2016 Author Share Posted July 1, 2016 She and Mammy were the only two that had any sense in Gone With The Wind.That's just the character. She had a chance to play Scarlett but turned it down because Scarlett represented the "new" modern woman and she didn't identify with that, she related to the other character as she saw herself as more traditional. Her feud with her sister Joan Fontaine "The Dragon Lady" is ongoing, even though Joan died in 2013! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorraine Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Yes, I know all about her and Joan and their ongoing competition and feud. They don't make dignified actresses like that anymore. I always liked Olivia more than Joan although I did like the latter in Jane Eyre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I've just now been reading the articles about her interview. I'm amazed she still, at the age of 100, has her wits about her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Union 5-3992 Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Here's hoping Douglas makes it to 100. I was certain Eli Wallach was going to make it a few years ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of famous actors have fallen short in recent years, Karl Malden, John Gielgud, Herbert Lom, Mickey Rooney, Richard Widmark, Christopher Lee, Patrick Macnee and so on.

He collaborated with many bands and recorded two albums. :haz: Edited July 1, 2016 by rhyv 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segue Myles Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 She and Mammy were the only two that had any sense in Gone With The Wind. Scarlett had sense. She just used it through her selfish greed. I have to say Melanie was a wonderful character. Ashley too. I wish more people tried to be like them and less Scarlett or Rhet! Mammie is amazing. I love as well that other character...the one who said she could birth babies...her voice cracks me up every time haha!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Segue Myles Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 I love Olivia de Havilland. Such a beautiful woman and her Maid Marian is my favourite ever! The Adventures Of Robin Hood remains a perfect movie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
