Hollywood Golden Era is Dead At The Age Of 104

Actress Luise Rainer, who became the first winner of
consecutive Oscars in the 1930s, has died at the age
of 104. The German-born star was named best
actress in 1936 and 1937 - a feat achieved by only
five actors in Academy Awards history to date. Her achievement made her a force in the golden age
of Hollywood cinema, but was also a curse, making
her last major film in 1943. According to her only daughter, she died from
pneumonia at her London home.
