Olivia De Havilland's best roles (of course my opinion) - one won her an academy award - The Heiress - shows a woman learning from men who use and abuse her based on Henry James Washington Square. It is a powerful performance. And, her role in Snake Pit (nominated for an oscar) shows the inner workings of an insane asylum based on a true story and pushing the edge for its time - 1948.
