Did she mostly appear in films?

If yes, would a majority of her films be in black-and-white?

Did she star alongside your friend and mine, Fred Flintstone, or indeed some other well known leading actor called Fred?

I do not believe that she starred alongside any leading actor named Fred.

So, I think it's *not* Katharine Hepburn or Bette Davis because their careers carried on well into the 1950s.

I was thinking it might be Greta Garbo, but she was 5ft 7in tall, which is significantly taller than the average height for a woman born in 1905 so question 4 rules her out.

So I'm going to go for my official guess:

Is it Vivien Leigh?

We've already been told that is the wrong answer. That was cdngooner's guess.
