It's so weird that someone who left her mark in Old Hollywood is still alive and well. A true legend.

I wonder if nationality confusion halted her Damehood at all - her parents were British subjects, yes, but de Havilland herself was born in Japan, was raised in California, and has lived in France for over 50 years. I think too that she considers herself American. A wonderful honor nonetheless. |
