    This reminded me of a question I had a while ago, but maybe it is easier to search up now. What is the oldest movie with at least one actor who is still alive, and what is the newest movie where no actors are still alive.

      Maria Riva, the daughter of Marlene Dietrich, played as a child actress in The Scarlett Empress (1934) and is still alive. She’s 99 years old now.

      Your other question is much harder to answer.

        I appreciate the answer! And I agree that the second one is a question that I am not sure how to find the answer to. It would be easier if we only limited it to the cast, but if it was extended to the crew, it gets a bit more complicated

          If it gets to the crew or extras, it becomes impossible. Lots of them you wouldn’t even find out if they died from public sources.
          Main cast may be doable, it’ll probably be a hobby film done by one person.
