Happy belated birthday to 'Gone With the Wind' star Olivia de Havilland, who is 104
Hollywood's Golden Age star Olivia de Havilland is 104 years old.
The centenarian and two-time Oscar winner is the last surviving adult actor of the 1939 film, "Gone With the Wind," according to IMDB.
De Havilland has appeared in more than 50 films. Some of her notable roles have included "The Snake Pit" in 1948 and the 1946 drama that earned de Havilland her first Academy Award, "To Each His Own." She won her second Oscar for her starring role in the 1949 film "The Heiress."
In 1944, she redefined the business by becoming a free agent. She left her studio and demanded she be in control of the roles she took on-screen. Today, the De Havilland Law, which prevents exclusive contracts from lasting longer than seven years, grants actors their working independence.
In 2017, de Havilland, who was born on July 1, 1916, was the oldest person to be appointed Dame Commander in Queen Elizabeth II's Birthday Honors list.
There's no word on how de Havilland celebrated turning 104, though according to a fan page, she marked her 103rd birthday by riding a bicycle near her home in France.
