Bulletpoints for those too lazy to read: * Grew up in Japan * Went to Hollywood as a teenager * Fucked up Hollywood's shit * Became famous playing Maid Marian opposite Errol Flynn in The Adventures of Robin Hood * Got even more famous playing Melanie Hamilton in Gone With the Wind. Scarlett O'Hara initially hates Melanie, who is a kind, gentle stereotype of Southern femininity, but Melanie puts up with Scarlett's shit, always defends her, and gladly helps Scarlett bury some dude she murdered. A real ride or die bitch. They become best friends. * Dated Jimmy Stewart, Howard Hughes and John Huston * Pranked the shit out of her co-stars in really strange, funny ways, like having herself chained down in a scene where Clark Gable had to lift her * Played the Hollywood Studio System like it was Game of Thrones * Sued the shit out of Hollywood to end the indentured servitude of studio system-era contracts, increasing creative freedom for performers. It's called De Havilland's Law. * Won two mothafuckin' Oscars. * Left mothafuckin' Hollywood because she was over that shit. * Oh, did I mention her family? * Her father was a world-famous card player. * Her cousin Geoffrey was aeronautical engineering prodigy, inventor of the de Havilland Mosquito, "the most versatile warplane ever built", and the de Havilland Comet, the first jet airliner. * Her sister was equally-crazy-famous actress Joan Fontaine. They are the only two siblings to both win mothafuckin' Oscars for Best Actress. They also hated each other, and got in a fight that lasted around 70 years. They still hadn't reconciled when Joan died in 2013, at age 96. Now that's commitment. * Oh, and did I mention Olivia is the older sister? Today is her 100th mothafuckin' birthday, and according to this article, she's just doing laps around her Paris townhouse and eating macaroons and chanting "110! 110!".

Cheers to you, Olivia.
