《亂世佳人》最后一位主演去世，享年104歲
憑借影片《亂世佳人》（Gone With the Wind）中的梅蘭妮一角所為人熟知的女星奧莉薇?黛?哈佛蘭于7月26日在巴黎去世，享年104歲。據(jù)紐約公關(guān)人員麗莎?戈德伯格稱，奧莉薇走得很安詳。生前，她曾兩獲奧斯卡獎，也曾致力于反抗好萊塢電影公司的霸王條款。
奧莉薇是好萊塢黃金時代最后一批頂級演員之一，也是《亂世佳人》中唯一在世的主演。六十年的演藝生涯中，她嘗試過未婚媽媽、精神病人等各種迥異角色，也曾與埃羅爾?弗林在劇情片、西部片、歷史劇中多次合作，尤以《俠盜羅賓漢》（The Adventures of Robin Hood）中的梅德?瑪麗安一角最為著名。她樂于突破自己，卻因為外形出眾而戲路受限，被公司固化定型為了“傻白甜”。
為擺脫公司的限制，奧莉薇起訴了華納兄弟（Warner Bros）。但華納于1943年表示，雖然雙方合同已經(jīng)到期，但奧莉薇先前因拒絕配合演出被雪藏了六個月，需要再為華納工作六個月作為補償。最終，加州上訴法院判定奧莉薇勝訴，并規(guī)定，未經(jīng)過演員同意，任何電影公司都不得任意延長協(xié)議日期。
隨后，奧莉薇迅速復(fù)出，并于1946年憑《風(fēng)流種子》（To Each His Own）斬獲奧斯卡，三年后，又以《女繼承人》（The Heiress）第二次獲獎。
除演藝事業(yè)之外，奧莉薇與瓊?芳登的姐妹不睦也頗為聞名。2016年，在接受采訪時，奧莉薇將已故的妹妹稱為“母夜叉”（瓊?芳登于2013年謝世），并在談憶往昔時，表示“瓊是個很復(fù)雜的人，有時候讓人覺得親切，有時候又很冷漠。”
據(jù)稱，奧莉薇和瓊長期不和，而在1941年奧斯卡獎的角逐中，姐妹兩人的矛盾變得愈發(fā)尖銳——瓊和奧莉薇分別憑借希區(qū)柯克指導(dǎo)的《深閨疑云》（Suspicion）、米切爾?萊森指導(dǎo)的《良宵苦短》（Hold Back the Dawn）提名最佳女主角。
當(dāng)被娛樂記者問到姐妹間是否打過架時，奧莉薇爽快作答：“當(dāng)然打過了，哪家的姐妹沒有爭執(zhí)過呢？”
兩人的關(guān)系頗像一部華納出品的肥皂劇，充斥著姐妹之間劍拔弩張的輕蔑、冷落——奧莉薇拒絕祝賀妹妹成功斬獲奧斯卡，瓊也數(shù)落姐姐選經(jīng)紀(jì)人和丈夫的眼光太糟。
奧莉薇曾說，《亂世佳人》中的梅蘭妮家庭十分和睦，自己卻不似這般幸福，即便是童年時期，也未曾感受過家庭溫暖。她于1916年7月1日在東京出生，父親是一名英國的專利律師。3歲那年父母離異后，隨母親和妹妹定居美國加州的薩拉托加。
在加州奧克蘭的密爾斯學(xué)院就讀時，舞臺表演的經(jīng)歷激發(fā)了奧莉薇對演藝事業(yè)的向往。在準(zhǔn)備學(xué)?！吨傧囊怪畨簟罚ˋ Midsummer Night’s Dream）的表演時，她去好萊塢看了馬克思?萊因哈特指導(dǎo)的同名戲劇的排練現(xiàn)場，并被意外選中，獲得了扮演劇中赫米婭一角的機會。隨后，她又被華納兄弟選中，與米基?魯尼共同出演了1935年的《仲夏夜之夢》電影版，又順勢和華納簽下了五年合約，和埃羅爾?弗林合作了《船長血》（Captain Blood）、《道奇城》（Dodge City）等一系列電影。
談起埃羅爾，奧莉薇總稱贊：“他簡直是魅力四射、無人能敵！”并堅稱他們的關(guān)系僅限友誼。而她正式交往過的對象包括商業(yè)大亨霍華德?休斯、演員詹姆斯?史都華，還在40年代初和導(dǎo)演約翰?休斯頓有過一段熱戀。
步入中年后，奧莉薇逐漸放緩了原先一年拍攝三部電影的工作節(jié)奏，僅拍攝了幾部小熒幕影片、參與了一些紀(jì)錄片的創(chuàng)作。
奧莉薇去世后，其在世家屬包括女兒吉賽爾?加蘭特?丘拉克、女婿安德魯?丘拉克、侄女黛博拉?多齊爾?波特。戈德伯格稱，奧莉薇的葬禮僅限親屬出席，葬禮籌款將捐給巴黎的美國大教堂。（財富中文網(wǎng)）

Olivia de Havilland, the doe-eyed actress beloved to millions as the sainted Melanie Wilkes of “Gone With the Wind,” but also a two-time Oscar winner and an off-screen fighter who challenged and unchained Hollywood’s contract system, died July 26 at her home in Paris. She was 104. Havilland died peacefully of natural causes, said New York-based publicist Lisa Goldberg.
De Havilland was among the last of the top screen performers from the studio era, and the last surviving lead from “Gone With the Wind.” During a career that spanned six decades, de Havilland also took on roles ranging from an unwed mother to a psychiatric inmate. She was Errol Flynn’s co-star in a series of dramas, Westerns and period pieces, most memorably as Maid Marian in “The Adventures of Robin Hood.” But De Havilland also was a prototype for an actress too beautiful for her own good, typecast in sweet and romantic roles while desiring greater challenges.
Her frustration finally led her to sue Warner Bros. In 1943 when the studio tried to keep her under contract after it had expired, claiming she owed six more months because she had been suspended for refusing roles. De Havilland prevailed, with the California Court of Appeals ruling that no studio could extend an agreement without the performer’s consent.
De Havilland went on to earn her own Academy Award in 1946 for her performance in “To Each His Own.” A second Oscar came three years later for “The Heiress.”
She was also famous, not always for the better, as the sister of Fontaine, with whom she had a troubled relationship. In a 2016 interview, de Havilland referred to her late sister as a “dragon lady” and said her memories of Fontaine, who died in 2013, were “multi-faceted, varying from endearing to alienating.”
De Havilland allegedly never got along with Fontaine, a feud magnified by the 1941 Oscar race that placed her against her sister for best actress honors. Fontaine was nominated for the Hitchcock thriller “Suspicion” while de Havilland was cited for “Hold Back the Dawn."
Asked by a gossip columnist if they ever fought, de Havilland responded, “Of course, we fight. What two sisters don’t battle?”
Like a good Warner Bros. soap opera, their relationship was a juicy narrative of supposed slights and snubs, from de Havilland reportedly refusing to congratulate Fontaine for winning the Oscar to Fontaine making a cutting crack about de Havilland’s poor choice of agents and husbands.
De Havilland once observed that Melanie Wilkes’ happiness was sustained by a loving, secure family, a blessing that eluded the actress even in childhood. She was born in Tokyo on July 1, 1916, the daughter of a British patent attorney. Her parents separated when she was 3, and her mother brought her and her younger sister Joan to Saratoga, California.
De Havilland’s acting ambitions dated back to stage performing at Mills College in Oakland, California. While preparing for a school production of “A Midsummer Night’s Dream,” she went to Hollywood to see Max Reinhardt’s rehearsals of the same comedy. She was asked to read for Hermia’s understudy, stayed with the production through her summer vacation and was given the role in the fall. Warner Bros. wanted stage actors for their lavish 1935 production and chose de Havilland to co-star with Mickey Rooney, who played Puck. She signed a five-year contract with the studio and went on to make “Captain Blood,” “Dodge City” and other films with Flynn.
“Oh, Errol had such magnetism! There was nobody who did what he did better than he did,” said de Havilland, whose bond with the dashing actor remained, she would insist, improbably platonic. She did date Howard Hughes and James Stewart and had an intense affair in the early ’40s with director John Huston.
Although she once filmed as many as three pictures a year, her career slowed in middle age. She made several movies for television, including “Roots” and “Charles and Diana.” In 2009, she narrated a documentary about Alzheimer’s, “I Remember Better When I Paint.”
Now, she is survived by her daughter, Gisele Galante Chulack, her son-in-law Andrew Chulack and her niece Deborah Dozier Potter. Goldberg said funeral arrangements are private and that memorial contributions should go to the American Cathedral in Paris.
