She was one of the last remaining actresses from Hollywood's Golden Age and is best known for her roles in Gone with the Wind, The Adventures of Robin Hood, and more.

It's the end of an era, as she was the last legend of Golden Age Hollywood. Truly one of a kind. RIP.

There are quite a few left (Sidney Poitier, Brigitte Bardot, Sophia Loren etc.) but they started their careers in the 1950s towards the end of the Golden Age. Olivia was one of the last surviving of the 1930s/40s Sad

Her death comes five months after that of Kirk Douglas, who also among the last major surviving actors of the Golden Age of Hollywood. 2020 certainly has claimed its share of famous people, but then again, every year does.

She was alive during the Battle of the Somme. Remarkable.

It would be even more remarkable had she been there. Many who were didn't make it to 24, let alone 104.

According to the Swedish philosopher Nick Bostrom, this kind of thinking is self-destructive, both on an individual and collective level.

Atlas philosopher Olawakandi would kick Bostrom's ass, philosophically speaking.
