I recall years ago seeing Olivia deHaviland in an old movie and thinking how beautiful she was - my wife claiming I had a crush on her. (Well....)
Then my wife said “She’s still alive - you should call her!” I couldn’t believe she was still alive - and that was 20+ years ago. And she still is! My wife got me her autobiography a few weeks ago - called “Every Frenchman Has one.” I’ve just gotten started - but I like the way she (or her writer) writes.
We watch It’s a Wonderful Life every Christmas. I’ve had the biggest crush on Donna Reed for as long as I’ve known this movie. It’s a strange thing to be infatuated with an image of a woman from a 70 year old movie, who has been dead for 30 years and would be 95 if she were still alive.
