Olivia de Havilland, the last actress of the golden age of Hollywood, has passed away.

Hollywood star Olivia de Havilland, best known for her role in the blockbuster Hollywood film "Gun with the Wind", has died at the age of 104.

Olivia de Havilland, considered the last living actress of the golden age of Hollywood, made her acting debut in 1935 at a young age.

Born in Tokyo, Japan, to British parents of American descent, Olivia de Havilland began acting at the age of 19.

Her parents moved to the United States shortly after Olivia de Havilland was born, and she moved to France after 1950 after living in the United States for two decades.

Olivia de Havilland starred in dozens of films and dramas and was first nominated for an Oscar for Supporting Actress in 1940, but failed to win the award.

She was nominated for an Oscar for her first supporting role in 'Gone With the Wind', but failed to win the award, but the film took her to new heights of fame.

'Gone With the Wind' is considered one of the most successful and iconic films in the history of Hollywood, which won 8 Oscars.

The film was recently removed from the website by web streaming website HBO for a few days due to anti-apartheid protests, but was later re-released.

'Gone with the Wind' depicts the era of the ancient American Civil War, in which black people were also portrayed as slaves, which is why the film is considered racist.

After the same film, Olivia de Havilland was awarded an Oscar for her performance in the 1946 film To Hear Her Own. Three years later, in 1949, she won the Oscar again.

Olivia de Havilland won several other top film awards besides the Oscars and has been considered the most popular actress of her time.

Interestingly, almost all the major cast who worked with Olivia de Havilland in the film 'Gone with the Wind' died before 1960, but she herself appeared to be involved in film projects until the age of 90.

Olivia de Havilland was also considered the last living actress of Hollywood's golden age. She appeared at film awards ceremonies and other shows until 2003, when she was confined to her home due to old age.

Reuters news agency quoted other showbiz websites as saying that Olivia de Havilland died of natural causes at her residence at the age of 104.

The actress' family and close friends also confirmed her death and said that the last rites of the actress would be performed in Paris.

Political and social figures from all over the world, including many Hollywood celebrities, expressed deep sorrow over the death of Olivia de Havilland, calling her death the end of the golden age of Hollywood.
