Miss Hope Springs as Greta Garbo 'The Lost Garbo Screen Test'

I found this footage in an old film can under my bed...Its says Screen test G.G.
Could it be?
I love Garbo and have been a life long fan....and this is something called an' homage'... not done out of anything but love....done with humour yes.. but she had a great sense of humour.. I hope she would have laughed at this.

Absolutely love this! Can watch it over and over. My favourite Garbo clip is this short test piece, better than any film sh was in.Just pure Garbo. Started watching you thinking it's going to be a laugh, by the end found it quite touching and moving, just love it, and the music.... beautiful. Any way of hearing more or getting a copy. I wish you every success. PLEASE do Dietrich, how about the clip in the railway carrige from Shanghi Express?

Hey there, I actually met you when you took your "Hope Spring sings Streisand" show to Islington (in the early 90s I guess) and thought you were incredibly good. Glad to see you are still up there and as fantastic as ever. Steven

I think it's a bit too animated for Garbo. Her mannerisms were a bit more subdued.

[tyjeffries]

@Handiman544 its meant to be satyrical...if you look at the screen tests I am referencing... you will see she is doing possibly MORE than I am lol.

this is odd and wonderful and fun and a wee bit chilling - I LOVE IT!!!

HELLO, I THOUGHT THIS WAS INCREDIBLY AWESOME, IT WAS MESMERIZING, AND YOUR MANNERISMS WERE JUST AS GARBO'S. THE MUSIC ADDED JUST THE RIGHT TOUCH TO YOUR WONDERFUL VIDEO. I WOULD OF LOVED THE OPPORTUNITY TO MEET MISS GARBO IN PERSON, SHE WAS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN, WITH GREAT TALENT. MY BEST TO YOU WITH ALL OF YOUR ENDEAVORS. VERY SINCERELY YOURS. ART:)
