Olivia de Havilland

Olivia Mary de Havilland (Tokyo, 1 july 1916 - Parys, 25 july 2020) wie in Britsk-Amerikaansk film- en toanielaktrise fan Guernseyaansk komôf. Sy wie de âldere suster fan aktrise Joan Fontaine. De Havilland wie ien fan de lêste grutte Hollywoodaktrises út de jierren 1930 dy't oant 2020 noch libben.

Jonkheid

Olivia de Havilland waard berne yn Tokyo, Japan út Ingelske âlden. Har mem, Lilian Augusta Ruse (1886–1975), wie in aktrise bekend ûnder de namme Lillian Fontaine, en har heit, Walter Augustus de Havilland (1872–1968), wie in advokaat mei in praktyk yn Japan.^[1]^[2] Har âlden trouden yn 1914 en gienen út elkoar yn 1919.

De de Havilland hushâlding ferhûze fan Tokyo nei Saratoga, Kalifornje doe't hja twa jier wie, út reden fan de minne sûnens fan har suster, dy't dêrnei yndie better waard. Beide susters gien nei de Los Gatos High School en Olivia gie ek nei de Notre Dame High School, Belmont.^[3] Yn Los Gatos is in aktearpriis nei har neamd. Har neef fan heite kant is Sir Geoffrey de Havilland, ûntwerper fan de fleanmasine de Havilland Mosquito.

Persoanlik libben

Ferhâldingen

Fan De Havilland en Errol Flynn waard ornearre dat hja in ferhâlding hienen, hja ferskynden tegearre yn acht films, mar it die letter bliken dat it net kloppe.

De Havilland ferklearre: He never guessed I had a crush on him. And it didn't get better either. In fact, I read in something that he wrote that he was in love with me when we made The Charge of the Light Brigade the next year, in 1936. I was amazed to read that, for it never occurred to me that he was smitten with me, too, even though we did all those pictures together. Mar yn in oar yntervieuw seit sy^[4] dat de fereallens fan beide kanten kaam, mar dat hja net fierder gean woe omdat Flynn doe noch troud wie mei aktrise Lili Damita.

Lettere libben

De Havilland wie goed befreone mei Bette Davis, dêr't hja mei spile yn Hush… Hush, Sweet Charlotte (1964), The Private Lives of Elizabeth and Essex (1939), It's Love I'm After (1937), en In This Our Life (1942). Sy is noch goed befreone mei aktrise Gloria Stuart.

Hja wenne yn Parys sûnt de 1950-er jierren; de Havilland ferskynde hast net mear yn it iepenbier.
