So this isn't 1960s per se, but I think that may have been when I first saw "Gone With the Wind".
Olivia de Havilland just turned 102 on July 1st. I think she may be the oldest living Hollywood celebrity, followed by Kirk Douglas at age 101, then Carol Channing (97) and Betty White (96).
I don't think I have seen any of her movies other than GWTW, but what a performance!
Happy 102nd Birthday!
A few years ago, I started some sports cards blogs, but I need a place to pontificate on some of my other interests - such as music, movies, TV, and all things Sixties and Seventies.
I hope you'll follow along.

RIP - Dennis Edwards
Dennis Edwards, (essentially) the first "replacement" member of The Temptations, passed away on February 1, 2018 at age 74.
Edwards replaced the smooth-sounding David Ruffin in the late-1960s, bringing more grit to the lead vocals on hits such as "Cloud 9", "Ball of Confusion", and "Papa Was a Rolling Stone".
Prior to joining the Tempts, he was a menber of another Motown group The Contours, who had the hit song "Do You Love Me?".
He sang with the Temptations off-and-on from 1968 through 1989. In recent years, he was the lead singer in a Temptations splinter group.
