Timelessly elegant at 100: Gone With The Wind's Olivia de Havilland celebrates milestone birthday and finally breaks silence on Golden Age of Hollywood's most infamous sibling rivalry.The actress has disclosed her true feelings about her late sister Joan Fontaine.

Rivalry dates back to their childhood which included 'savage' physical fights. 

De Havilland refers to the late Fontaine as 'Dragon Lady'.

While she is losing her sight and hearing, she remains in otherwise good heath and lives in Paris.

She reveals why she went for the role of Melanie Hamilton from Gone With The Wind, and not Scarlett O'Hara.
