Now Renee is the oldest living actress in the world, followed by Olivia. Funny coïncidence. OLIVIA IS NOT THE 2ND OLDEST ACTRESS IN THE WORLD THE 2ND OLDEST IS MARY WARD BREHENY Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Old Crem 3,606 Posted June 9, 2020 She might well life to see her most famous film be banned n campaign running to remove it from HBO Max. It seems very ott to ban it from a streaming platform where offering resources putting It in context would be easy to provide. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's interesting to compare how actors who played older people seemed then compared to how they actually aged, e.g. Max von Sydow being aged up as the Old Priest in the Exorcist from 44 to 74, compared to his on screen appearances as e.g. Director Lamar Burgess in Minority Report aged 73 in 2002, or as the Three Eyed Raven in GoT when he was a bit older still.

Toast 16,143 Posted June 10, 2020 I'll point again to the fact that suppressing Gone With The Wind also suppresses the first Oscar-winning performance by a black actress. But of course this was far too long ago to fit the popular agenda that black actors don't receive due recognition, so it's largely ignored anyway. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThePrematureBurial 224 Posted June 10, 2020 Glad to see, that this news wasn't Olivia's death. When will they pull "Lady in a cage"? I remember, that one of the thugs who terrorized her in this film was jewish (James Caan), and another one was non-white. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onNOyPIbP48 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sean 6,330 Posted June 10, 2020 My Nan loved Gone With The Wind I suggested the theme song for the service but was outvoted for The Sound of Music theme tune.Funeral directors ended up playing Climb every mountain and changing halfway through when they realised they screwed up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If we're being that technical then we would have to count the time she was born. The chances are she wasn't born in the early hours of the morning. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roaming_comrade 471 Posted June 30, 2020 This makes her the first 104 year old on the Death List since Luise Rainer, which is funny cause Carl Reiner coincidentally died just now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CoffinLodger 1,248 Posted June 30, 2020 I believe she joins an elite group of deathlist names who have reached 104 along with Rose Kennedy Luise Rainer Oscar Niemeyer and Brooke Astor.Let me know if I've missed anyone out!
