Olivia De Havilland    USA    1916-2020

 

actress

who gained movie immortality

in “Gone With the Wind,”

then built an illustrious film career,

punctuated by a successful fight

to loosen the studios’

grip on contract actors

 

(...)

 

Ms. de Havilland was both

a classic Hollywood beauty

and an honored screen actress

whose very name and bearing

suggested membership

in a kind of

aristocracy of moviedom.

 

Though she was typecast

early in her career

as the demure ingénue,

she went on to earn meatier roles

that led to five

Academy Award nominations,

two of which brought her the Oscar,

for “To Each His Own” (1946)

and “The Heiress” (1949).

 

 

Those roles came to her

in no small part

because of the resolve she showed

when she stood up to the studios

and won a battle that helped

push Hollywood into the modern era,

surprising the movie moguls,

who may not have expected such steel

in an actress so softly attractive and,

at 5-foot-3, so unintimidatingly petite.
