I found your blog through the Basil Rathbone Blogathon. :) <br /><br />I'm hosting a 2020 Olivia de Havilland Blogathon on July 1 & 2 (short notice, I know, but I was waiting to see if anyone would host the usual 'annual' one) and I'm looking for participants. If this something you'd like to participate in, you can find the details here: https://charitysplace.wordpress.com/2020/06/16/announcing-the-olivia-de-havilland-blogathon-july-1-2-2020/<br /><br />Thanks for considering!

She plays strong without being brassy or ostentatious, and she's quite believable. I do find the film difficult to watch, though; the scenes of cruelty to the dog are too disturbing for me. I wonder how they would affect children.grandoldmovieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10773085288675763855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-331373971294623620.post-25318169390017946452018-07-07T07:35:46.924-07:002018-07-07T07:35:46.924-07:00I am so glad you added your fondness for the movie...I am so glad you added your fondness for the movie to this post.

I saw The Proud Rebel once when I was doing a Olivia de Havilland marathon and was totally enchanted by it. It is visually beautiful as you point out but also have some touching and memorable scenes.

This sounds like a real winner. I love movies like this. It seems like it would have the charm of "Rachel and the Stranger", "The Romance of Rosy Ridge", and I don't know why it reminds me of this title but "So Dear to My Heart", all rolled into one.

I liked it then and I like it better today. The chemistry between Olivia de Havilland, Alan Ladd, and his son David Ladd made this the top notch family movie that it is. First time viewers be prepared for the pulling of heart strings. This is a really good movie worth watching.<br /><br />Happy 102nd Birthday to the one and only Olivia de Havilland.
