Madeleine Lebeau passed away at age 92. Best known, in America, for her role as 'Yvonne' in Casablanca, Lebeau was the last known surviving cast member. Lebeau also performed in a number of classic films including Federico Fellini's 8 and Hold Back the Dawn with Errol Flynn and Olivia de Havilland.

Via the Hollywood Reporter:

Madeleine Lebeau, the luminous French actress who played Yvonne, the jilted lover of Humphrey Bogart's Rick Blaine who wells up during the patriotic singing of La Marseillaise in the immortal film Casablanca, has died. She was 92.

Lebeau, who later portrayed an actress named Madeleine in another classic, Federico Fellini's 8 1/2 (1963), died May 1 in Estepona, Spain, after breaking her thigh bone, her stepson, documentary filmmaker and environmentalist Carlo Alberto Pinelli, told The Hollywood Reporter.

Lebeau is widely believed to be the last surviving castmember from Casablanca. Not too long before making the film, she herself had escaped Nazi-occupied France with her then-husband, actor Marcel Dalio.
