From left to right: Lars Hanson, Garbo, and John Gilbert. Candid photo of Garbo showing off her engagement (to Gilbert) ring, probably on the set of Flesh and the Devil (as these three were the stars of it; released in 1926). Garbo later left Gilber at the alter in 1927 after getting cold feet.

Thank you for so much amazing pics, everyone!

Has anyone gone to the Nordiskamuseet at Stockholm to see the Garbo's Garbo exhibition?

After seeing all these amazing pics here, I don't think I need to go in anymore.



But if someone has seen it, please share your experience and give me advise, because I'm kinda running outta money and I can't decide if spending 60kr to see it is well worth it?

Thank you!

i just watched the mysterious lady, and i think garbo looked her best here.. of course, MGM splurging on the costumes and everything helped, but her acting and her looks and her mimic and her gestures and her posture and her way of moving, too, are just perfect in this film. btw. i like the costumes (by gilbert clark) better than those of the valentino era.

i'm just re-watching it with the audio commentary and of course all they talk about is garbo, and her costumes. i love what they say about garbo always chosing comfort over glamour when she was not acting. she once asked the director if "the feet were in this" which simply meant that she wanted to know if she had to wear the high heels or if she could wear more comfortable slippers.

thanks to everyone who contributed pictures.

TCM (Turner Classic Movies) are going to be playing some Garbo movies this month!

This Monday (9/18

6am (all times eastern US) and 7am will play a little-seen Swedish documentary. 6am is the first part, her rise to stardom and 7am is the second part, her career and life after film.

At 8am they are playing Mata Hari...(but she doesn't actually appear on-screen in the see-through black dress, as it was deemed too sexy )

At 10am they are playing Susan Lenox....

(Still on Monday the 18th...skip work or class and make a whole day of it! )
