Happy 99th Birthday to Olivia De Havilland
Olivia De Havilland just celebrated her 99th birthday. The actress is now not only the last surviving cast member of 1939's "Gone With the Wind" and the oldest living Oscar winner, but she's also the last surviving cast member of "Not as a Stranger," the 1955 Stanley Kramer film she costarred in with ROBERT MITCHUM. In it, she played a Swedish nurse who falls for medical student Mitchum, who views her just as a meal ticket while he romances Gloria Grahame. It's not a great film but what a cast: Frank Sinatra, Lee Marvin, Broderick Crawford and Harry Morgan.

RIP, Harry Morgan
Sad to hear that Harry (also known as Henry) Morgan has passed away at the age of 96. He was best known for his role as Col. Potter on TV's MASH, but he also had a long film career. One of my favorite roles of his is as the judge in Holiday Affair. He hears an outlandish case involving ROBERT MITCHUM and his wry amusement at the convoluted love triangle with Mitchum, Janet Leigh and Wendell Corey and peculiar details involving a squirrel and a little girl with a balloon on her head, make for a very funny scene. RIP.
