@Mz iMac  Thanks for the information!  She is such a class act and so beautiful at 100!

ITA!  

In an interview with Vanity Fair, 

 Olivia said she plans to live to 110 years!

@alliswell  I hope she does!  Love her very much!

I was hoping that someone was going to post a thread about this movie, one of the best movies ever made.

The Snake Pit is too scary for me. Saw it once and can't watch it again.

Thank You for posting.  It has been years since I watched this.  I have the book, read it when in elementary school and probably saw the movie shortly thereafter. Book was written in 1946, movie done in 1948.

Oh, such a great movie evening for me!  I watched Snake Pit, The Heiress and the one about the child given up for adoption....that was the best one.  Went to sleep after that.  All three were great.  I love Olivia De Havilland and her sister both although I heard they didn't get along.

Right now, I'm watching Hard To Get which isn't too good but watchable at 5:00 am.  Made in 1938, just before Gone With The Wind.

One of the greatest actresses, imo.

Two very good movies.
