Garbo without a doubt, every film she is a femme fatal, only she expresses the part each differently in each film, wow
-
i totally agree, i think the reason is that the films of Garbo they show, all the time, are the ones included in the box set they put out!
-
Gres' perfumes have announced that they are putting out 3 new perfumes in homage to Greta Garbo, they should be available in the US soon, does anyone out there have any updated info?
-
Garbo in Camille, Ninotchka, and Anna Karenina and Anna Christie, practically all of her films, sound of course.
-
TCM get with the program, let us have Mata Hari, Susan Lenox and others in their original precut and pre-code forms
-
wow, thanks for these, do you have any from mysterious lady or a woman of affairs
-
i have the vhs , i will play it, but i do love the music from the dvd that was shown sunday night. i just love all of her films, in any such form
-
hey, can anyone publish some Garbo shots from her silents, especially with Gilbert???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????/
-
Mysterious Lady, last night, wow, catch it if you can!
-
Mysterious Lady, what a treat to behold, the love scenes are so terrific, she was one of the few who could change over to sound, but the silents are wonderful to see!
-
watched this silent gem of garbo's and it is such a delight, it was one of the last silents ever produced, and it was well worth seeing, you can get it in the Garbo Signature Collection, the love scenes are, as usual, her best!
-
TCM please show La Boheme and The Great Parade, Gilbert's silent films, of course the ones with Garbo are a must, but La Boheme and The Great Parade are never shown!
-
I hope this includes the original uncut and uncensored Mata Hari with Garbo
Also, when are we going to get real pre-codes, not B movies in the box sets!
-
True, WB had grittiness, but Mata Hari was censored when it was re-release in 1936 because of several scenes that were very (how shall i put it) very suggestive and in some ways down right risque! Garbo is at her best for seduction, etc., and there is one scene that was very objectionable for reasons that we will leave to be seen later, we hope!
-
she was the Divine Woman!
-
she was just another overly dramatic soap opera actress!
-
please add Ninotchka to this list of his films, and a great one at that!
-
come on, these are just basically B movies..............when are we going to the a real pre-code A movie that caused a sensation when it was originally released in 1932---Mata Hari, before it was cut and butchered by the Hays Code in 1936 upon its re-release, come on TCM now that is a real honest to goodness pre-code that we at TCM deserve to have in your so "forbidden hollywood" series, it really was forbidden!
-
i would be Garbo in Mata Hari
-
why are not more of the real classic films (from the golden age) being shown in prime time, and must we once again, see Casablanca dah
-
yes, her acting ability was quite limited, but do you know, she took the Oscar in 1937 over Garbo's Camille.....what wrong doing, the Academy tried to make it up to Garbo with an honorary oscar in 1955 which she never officially accepted! Camille is considered by many to be the greatest performance ever put on the screen, Garbo should have won that not Luise!
-
How many times can we see Casablanca? Little Women, that is a lousy dated movie, and it was on yet again, tonight!
Why are they putting films like Grand Hotel and Ninotchka on at such outrageous hours of the day or night?
Play some more Garbo and older films, some not quite so common this is TCM and stop playing those newer films and the guest programmer is really duh, dumb!
-
I agree MGM ruined Garbo's career, they made her do ridiculous lines in her early talkies, and then they finally did it, Mayer made her do Two Faced Woman, the pic was good for anyone else, but reduced her to a miscast comic figure, and the bathing suit scene, why did she do that? She was right in leaving Hollywood - but we feel cheated she had so much more to give, and MGM got her so depressed, she did not want to give anymore!
-
any Fred Astaire and Rogers musical, especially, Top Hat, the routine he does, and The Way You Look Tonight, and of course, Night and Day!
Singin in the Rain too
Gres perfumes to pay hommage
in Information, Please!
