Star Of the month "Greta Garbo"
"There are some who want to get married and others who don't. I have never had an impulse to go to the altar. I am a difficult person to lead"
Greta Garbo
When Greta Garbo arrived Hollywood . Louis B. Mayer informed Her director \Mentor\ Boyfriend Mouritz Stiller " American Men Don't like Fat Women" She lost her weight as well as stiller whose career was dried up as her soared. She refused to return to Sweden with him.
On her arrival in Hollywood in late 1925, Garbo was sent to Max Factor seeking 'make-up dramatization' for her first American screen test. Of the early Garbo, Factor said, "She has natural eyelashes more lovely than any artificial lashes I can supply.
She was Adolf Hitler Favorite Actress.
Garbo And Marlene Dietrich shared a Lesbian lover, The socialite Mercedes De Acosta.
At Mayer 's insistence She agreed to appeared in a premiere of Camille . She wore her pajamas under her fur coat , Waved to her fans walk out to the door without bothering watching the film.
In "Ninotchka," Garbo gave a brilliant comedy performance in one of MGM's best pictures to date. Louis B. Mayer sent her a huge bunch of flowers on the first day of shooting; she returned it without a word.
The appeal of Garbo was androgynous and enormous: at the peak of her success she was reputed to receive ninety thousand letters a month, 80 percent of them from women.
Except at the very beginning of her career, she granted no interviews, signed no autographs, attended no premieres, and answered no fan mail.
Garbo First talkie Anna Christie ,was highly publicize by MGM with the promo line "Garbo Talks!!!!" Her first Comedy "Ninotchka" Was dub " Garbo Laugh !!" When " Camille" was released. Some suggested the ad should read " Garbo Coughs!!"
