Ugh, scratch that one too to Fred. Is there a way to edit or delete posts?
And she's a blonde. At least on her IMDB picture.

It has to be Olivia de Havilland, but I won't guess it. Someone that hasn't had a guess already want to try?

I have someone in mind for the next, but you're welcome to take it if you'd like.

No, go for it. You guessed it. :)

Vivien Leigh? British, but born in India.
Already guessed her. Check the list before you guess.

Based on your choice when you were in control of 20Q and your previous complaints, it seems that you watch professional wrestling in lieu of any movies.

Lol, I assume you've seen all of Olivia de Havilland's films.

Jamiet must have done homework in high school instead of staying up and watching old Errol Flynn movies.

She was in this little-known art movie called "Gone With The Wind".

Then you are not beyond redemption. The very pretty leading lady in nine or ten films is the youthful Dame Olivia Mary de Havilland.

I feel compelled to note that Gone With the Wind was produced in 1939 - making it 83 years old, and while I'm aware of the movie, I've never actually seen it, and I'm middle-aged with well-rounded interests :)

I'm not objecting to the actress being used in 20Q - it seems valid - but it doesn't seem valid to criticize people for being unaware of her either.

That's how I know her as well, and not only that, but she lived till the age of 104 and died only two years ago.

The fact that we need a wiki reference to justify the answer is an indication that Rule 4. might have not been upheld:

'4. Please choose people from history, or movie/TV/literary/video game chars/etc. characters that, if you were to throw a dart out the window, at least 50% of people hit would know this character.'

I would suggest invalidating this round.

People know Olivia deHavilland. Maybe she's not as famous as Napoleon but she's definitely known enough to satisfy the rule.
