ANNOUNCING the Fourth Annual Olivia de Havilland Blogathon!


I am excited to announce that, for the fourth year in a row, Crystal of In the Good Old Days of Classic Hollywood and I are hosting a blogathon in honor of our beloved Olivia de Havilland, who will be turning 104 on July 1st!

The blogathon will run from July 1st to July 3.

Here are the rules:

1. Choose any film or topic pertaining to Dame Olivia. Up to TWO Duplicates are allowed, so if you see that only one blogger is writing about, say, The Adventures of Robin Hood, you are free to write about it also.

2. Once you have made your selection(s), leave a comment below or over on Crystal's blog. Please be sure to include the name and link to your blog (so I don't have to look it up).

3. Please be sure to acknowledge both hosts in your post with a link back to their blog.

4. Lastly, grab a banner and spread the word!

  3. Why is no one claiming Olivia's films with Cagney?

    No THE IRISH IN US or STRAWBERRY BLONDE? Or have they been covered enough in previous blogs?

    1. I think Strawberry Blonde was picked in past years. Maybe you'd like to write about one of them ;)
