Cinefamily, helping out with filing and cataloging and prints, excited to be a part of an amazing theater in LA. Greta Garbo tonight.
Love (starring Greta Garbo)
Greta Garbo is celebrated for her reign as the Swedish Sphinx of 1930s romances, including 1935's Anna Karenina, in which she breathed passionate life into Tolstoy's timeless tale of star-crossed betrayal. Seven years earlier, Garbo's smoldering presence graced the silent version of Anna Karenina, simply titled Love. Garbo was immortalized for her unceasing elegance, so when her large, beautiful eyes reveal tinges of vulnerability, Tolstoy's classic scenes are rendered truly wrenching. The studio insisted that both happy and unhappy endings be filmed, and in an unusual move, both versions were released to audiences. Come find out which version made its way to the Cinefamily's silver screen, as we watch Greta Garbo and John Gilbert fall--in Love.
Dirs. Edmund Goulding & John Gilbert, 1927, 35mm, 82 min.
