I fell in love with her in “They died with their boots on.” I told my then girlfriend about the old movie, how great it was, how beautiful the old-time actress was, and that I had stayed up until 4 am on a work day to watch it.
“Oh - I have it on tape. And the actress is Olivia de Havilland.”
“Oh - so that’s who that is. Just beautiful! They don’t make movie stars like that anymore!!”
“Well - she’s still alive.”
“What!!?? No way!!!”
And my girlfriend is now my wife - and we’re both 30+ years older! (As is Olivia! Wow!!)

It’s actually a welcoming comfort to know that people from then are still with us.

They REALLY made her look plain in The Heiress, one of my favorite pictures. Savage performance too.
