Her step father, Walter Augustus de Havilland was half uncle to Geoffrey de Havilland.

Olivia de Havilland was famous for some 50 movies. One of them being 'Gone With The Wind'.

I think my earliest memory of her films was The Adventures of Robin Hood, when she played Maid Marian to Errol Flynn's Robin. It was one of those regular Sunday afternoon movies on BBC TV. She was gorgeous. I'm glad she was made a Dame in the honours list. RIP Dame Olivia. :)

Sorry to hear about this, Dame Olivia. R.I.P.
Another reminder of our mortality no matter how talented, rich or famous.
