Greta Garbo

[Luxury's Lap]

Speaking of Ninotchka...

One behind-the-scenes, two publicity, and one of Garbo on the cover of the July 1939 Post.

(And thanks for the phots lady stardust, but they were all reposts. 20 pages is a lot, so it's understandable. You should see my Garbo photo filing system!)

 

[Luxury's Lap]

I love finding different photos from the same photoshoot. You can see how she just moves her eyes/head/hands slightly (or sometimes more dramatically) to convey such emotions.

These are for Mata Hari (1931).

Another example....

These are for Anna Christie (1930)...

(These photos and the above from Mata Hari were shot by her favorite photographer, Clarance Sinclair Bull.)

More examples, both for As You Desire Me (1932)....

Okay, I normally don't do reposts (or at least try not to), but this is a really good example of her sublte movements in a photo shoot....well, one is new (the one where she's looking down), the other two are reposts. All for As You Desire Me.....

(the photos for the other examples aren't reposts...I even have 8 additional shots from the above Mata Hari shoot!)

4 HQ's of an older Garbo

She looks so tired in the last one

 

[Luxury's Lap]

Thanks for posting those, Dosviolines! In the first one it looks like she's wearing her sweater from Anna Christie and in the last one it looks like she's wearing her ring from Mata Hari. blush: Just a silly observation.)

Some photos from one of my favorite photo sessions. Taken by her favorite photographer Bull. I'm rather happy because I found the exact date for these photos - April 13th, 1932. I think they might have been for Grand Hotel. (Yes, I know two are of the same shot.... one's smaller but clearer and one's bigger but foggier...I can never decide )
