Don't forget one of THE most famous movie cars: Norma Desmond's Isotta Fraschini! "The antique car used as Norma Desmond's limousine is an Isotta-Fraschini, and once belonged to 1920s socialite Peggy Hopkins Joyce. It was a gift from her lover, automobile magnate Walter Chrysler." Lined in Leopard What it looks like today

What are your five favorite actors?

I know. I went through the same kind of thing with her. But, like you said, she's got IT. And, now I watch her with the same relish I do Crawford, whom I disliked for YEARS but now find irresistible! Funny, those gals who were box office poison didn't seem to fade with time in the eyes of our modern groupies. Garbo, Dietrich, Hepburn, Crawford, Davis are all Hot Properties today! -

I don't understand it either. You don't get that with Colbert, Loy, or Lombard. But, I guess you do get it with Hepburn. Many an argument has broken out over her. -

Well, I REALLY like Kate, too. I recently saw a movie of hers with Cameron Diaz about changing houses from L.A. to England. She was really good. Now, as for Garbo, you may most certainly join the Cult but beware; there are more ney sayers on her than yea sayers! Ha! So many people think she is over-rated, as if that is possible! Maybe by today's standards, but as one fellow poster said to me, you have to put yourself back in her heyday. There was no one who even came close to the frenzy she created. And, I find it ironic that Bergman, another Swede, was held in such high regard that she is lauded right along side Garbo as "one of the greatest of all time!" And, they are both in the top five of the film institute's list. All of those people, figuring out who was who in the firmament of Hollywood's history, and they put both of them in the top five. Hmmm, makes you think they really are the tops! -

I commend you on your list Vertigo22, with the exception of Kate Winslet, who for my taste is WAY too new for a Turner Classic Movie list. But, you have Garbo and Bergman! Garbo was voted #1 greatest silent movie actress, and Berman #1 greatest sound actress by Time magazine. They are also in the top FIVE of the American Film Institute coming in #4, Bergman, and #5, Garbo, as the greatest actresses of all time. The Swedes have it!
