@YourBoss2012 I used two songs in this video, both are listed in the information box. To make it clearer, if I gave you the wrong song the first time, then the only other song it can be is 'My Life' by Dido. Don't argue with me, I know what I used. You should learn to read and listen.
Can you imagine her life stories if any one of us had the opportunity of being her inner circle? I would've liked to have seen her NY apartment after she passed in April, 1990. Sad in many ways how she became a prisoner to her fame. Then again, I never knew her and she might have been very happy. Who knows?
I think her allure was that she became reclusive which I believe was a woman with a fascinating career with such sadness of the soul. Her turning her back on Hollywood made her all the more genuine as she aged and walked about New York. Many of her movies conveyed unfulfilled happiness which makes one wonder how much was script or her real self.
Great beauty. Great Actress. But a shitty person. Really, inexcusably shitty. She told legendary MGM Costume Designer, Adrian, who designed her wardrobe for over twenty films that she never much liked having to wear his fashions AND left a married lover, George Schlee; he died of natural causes, DEAD in a Paris hotel room they shared, fleeing the scene.
i believe that theres never been an actress alive since garbo to play her in a auto biography because theres never been someone with perfect facial symetry. i have seen actresses all my life and beautiful models. but never to her level. i would say the second most beautiful of all time was elizabeth taylor. but Garbo stands alone at the top. my opinion.:-)
@moondancer162 I am not talking about Paltrow personality just her acting ability . She has certain features that with proper make up could play the part. That is all just an opinion so please relax.
Just looking at photos of her or watching her in movies...it almost feels like she wasn't even real, like maybe we all just dreamed her up. She was not the most beautiful nor the most talented actress who ever lived, but you can't forget Garbo. There's just such a haunting aura about her; and those eyes! Once you've seen her, you can't ever forget her. Wonderful video, dear. Beautifully done.
I don't agree on only two things that you sad.. I think she was the most talented actress ever and certanly one of the most beautiful, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, and we all can't ever agree on someone to be the most beautiful... But I think she was one of the most beautiful people who ever lived!
@LadyDijana I certainly agree that she was one of the most beautiful women ever, and I think she was extremely talented. I meant only that there have always been very beautiful and very talented actresses out there, but Garbo had more than that. She had that mystery that made her different than your typical Hollywood starlet.
qué hermoso! qué mujer!! de sola verla en tu video y con la música justa, me hizo llorar... gracias tu trabajo fue grandioso, sus actuaciones son memorables, la "divina" Garbo no tiene paralelo en toda la historia del cine!
Does anyone know what the first song is entitled? I couldn't think of a song that could possibly better capture the essence of Greta Garbo--beautiful, powerful, and yet somewhat tragic and morose.
@xxteddyduchampxx it's all in the info box. The first song is called Any Other Name by Thomas Newman from the film American Beauty. Im glad you think it suited her.
There are countless things one could say as to what makes Garbo unique: her mystery, her beauty, her genious as an actress, her charm etc. She was quite simple the Divine. The greatest, ever.
This is a wonderful tribute to her. So well done. If Garbo never said one word, she said a thousand with just her face. One of a kind. Thank you for this.
My mother is one quarter Swedish, so Greta also makes me proud. Wonderful job again Claudia! It sums up Garbo's aura of mystery, beauty and independance.
Garbo was talented, beautiful and also cool before the word even existed! When she first came to Hollywood she was seen as a masculine girl, but if front of the camera she enchanted everyone. She and Ingrid Bergman makes me so proud of being Swedish. Of course, Anita Ekberg and Britt Ekland also made a career in Hollywood but that was more thanks to beauty than actual talent. I like them too, but they're not in class with Greta and Ingrid. However, thank you for this great tribute, Claudia!
Ms. Garbo makes me proud to be half Swedish...Claudia...you are amazing...glad you had a wonderful trip and your are safe....bless you always! You have a beautiful talent and thank you for sharing it with the world!
Another lovely job Claudia, right up my street! I must say you are getting pretty good at this video production game. Images and music with soul and emotion. That's what I look for! BAZ
i feel i should make some witty insightful recap but your video and tag say it all
she doesnt have peers. there has never been anyone, Marilyn, Brando, Liz, Pitt, who has such a mesmerizing presence, just seeing her can startle you, like @ 3:30. i agree with Bette. and Orson.
"For almost 60 years, the world has forced Garbo to play the Hollywood game. And she won"
Thank you Claudia for the great tribute. I've always thought that at the beginning of her career (the silent era), Garbo had those two knives in her eyes and later during her talkie time, they turned into something terribly tragic. She could speak more than 50 expressions just with one glance. I don't think anyone else could ever do that...
@annpham I know it's clichéd, but she really could express so much at one time through her eyes. As you say no one has done that before or since. When I watch Garbo films, I can't distinguish which ones are better than the others, it's because I'm always fascinated by Garbo throughout, that everything is always secondary. The funniest thing is I don't even think she's a great actress, or indeed an incredible beauty.
Fabulous xx
