Here is the list of all Olivia de Havilland movies.

Olivia de Havilland was an American actress who rose to fame during the Golden Age of Hollywood. She was born on July 1, 1916, in Tokyo, Japan, and died on July 26, 2020, in Paris, France, at the age of 104.

De Havilland began her career in Hollywood in the 1930s and quickly became known for her talent and beauty. She starred in a number of successful films, including "Gone with the Wind" (1939), for which she earned her first Academy Award nomination, and "The Adventures of Robin Hood" (1938), for which she received her first Academy Award.

De Havilland's career was temporarily derailed in the late 1940s when she sued Warner Bros. Studios over her contract, which she believed was unfairly restrictive. The resulting court case, known as the "De Havilland Law," helped to establish the principle that performers could not be bound to long-term contracts without their consent.

After the lawsuit, de Havilland continued to act in films and on stage, earning additional Academy Award nominations for her work in "The Snake Pit" (1948) and "The Heiress" (1949), for which she won her second Academy Award.

In addition to her successful acting career, de Havilland was also known for her philanthropic work and activism. She was an early supporter of the Civil Rights Movement and was awarded the National Medal of Arts in 2008 for her contributions to American culture.

De Havilland's legacy in Hollywood and beyond is one of talent, beauty, and strength. She paved the way for other actors to assert greater control over their careers and helped to establish the power of the performer in the entertainment industry.
