as, in real life. Begin!

I think Stephen Collins is the only main cast member of Brewster's Millions still with us.

Howie2000

Barbara Kent is the only main cast member alive of every movie she was ever in.

Nick Danger

I assume that Shirley Temple has outlasted all her co-stars.

Michael Cain is the only one alive in Sleuth.

Yeah, I know I cheated.

TGM

Lonette McKee is still alive..

Groucho

RIP Alec Cawthorne.

Claudia Cardinale is the last one left from Once Upon a Time in the West.

Maureen O'Hara is still kicking so just about every movie she has made.

chuckd21

Ditto Lauren Bacall.

Howie2000

She starred in a few tv movies in the late 90s which I assume the lions share of cast members are still alive and her daughter in The Parent Trap Hayley Mills is still alive.

Roybq

Isn't Diana Ross the only main cast member alive from "The Wiz" ? You have to go pretty far down imdb.com to find anyone else still kicking.

Of the 9 credited cast members in Vertigo, only Kim Novak is still alive.

The Antipodean

Plenty more here

Sure, but that's asking for the oldest movies with a living cast member (and not necessarily just one living cast member). In this thread we can give examples of more recent films that are down to one surviving cast member.

Ash Ketchum

Well, with Falk gone, IT'S A MAD, MAD, MAD, MAD WORLD's living cast members are dwindling. But there's still a handful, led by Mickey Rooney and Sid Caesar.

In fact, most if not all Mickey Rooney movies made in the 1930s and '40s.

And, speaking of Falk, now that he's gone, ROBIN AND THE SEVEN HOODS (1964) may have only one living cast member--Barbara Rush.

Most Deanna Durbin movies. She was a star from 1936-1948 and is still alive--she turns 90 this year. I've seen a bunch of her movies within the past year and I'm betting she's the only one from most of them. I was gonna say THAT CERTAIN AGE (1938) for certain because her co-star in that one, Jackie Cooper, died earlier this year, but then I remembered that Peggy Stewart was in it, too, and she's still alive (87) and still working.

Peggy Stewart's co-star from STAGECOACH TO DENVER (1946), Bobby Blake (aka Robert Blake), is still with us and he's probably the only one left from TREASURE OF THE SIERRA MADRE (1948). One of that film's other co-stars, Bruce Bennett, died a few years ago at the age of 100.

Time Warrior

Probably most of the 1930s and 1940s movies of sisters Olivia De Havilland and Joan Fontaine - though I note that there are at least three or four minor players left from Gone With the Wind.

i'm sure there are plenty of older movies but it would be interesting to find a newer one that qualifies.

Soul Men

Isaac Hayes and Bernie Mac are dead, leaving only Samuel L. Jackson.

starman9000

That's sad, though I think the lady is still alive.

Bacon

Steve Martin in Planes,Trains and Automobiles

He and John Candy were the only two main characters

Numanoid

Andre Gregory is the only cast member alive from My Dinner With Andre, since poor Wallace Shawn's demise many years ago.

Ash Ketchum

With Liz Taylor's death, JANE EYRE (1944) with Fontaine joins the club.

GWTW: I believe Ann Rutherford, who played one of Scarlett's sisters, is still alive as well.
