Joan Crawford & Greta Garbo: What is the Garbo legend?

[@Marketoromagnolo]

what a wonderful woman Joan was, I love how much she respected Garbo and considered her the ultimate movie star, but Joan was as well

[@EvanRockwell1]

​@@boncoeur7229You knew Joan Crawford personally?

[@Armistead_MacSkye]

Joan was not a "wonderful" woman. She was human.

[@juditveronikatopal6607]

She could have been jealous, but she wasn't. Bless them. Both.

Somehow Garbo was above the jalousi of her contemporary female movie stars. Everyone was in ave of her. Perhaps because she was so elusive and inaccessible.

[@richardmcleod1930]

Charming video of Joan Crawford discussing Garbo.

[@royal_glamour]

Joan's voice is so nice. Lovely to hear her talking about Garbo. I like the pictures you used too 😊

[@hudsony777]

She had an impeccable speaking voice. She learned her craft well.

[@ingeabrahamsen4684]

Yes, actresses of to day should really study how actresses in the 30's 40's and 50's used their voices and way of speaking to enhance their attraction and personality. People like Garbo, Dietrich, Bacall, Monroe... I once saw a Dick Cavett show on KZbin, where he was interviewing Janis Joplin, and in came Gloria Swanson looking wonderful and a perfect diva. Overshadowing Janis completely, and spoke with the most beautiful soft melodic voice. Janis, 44 years her junior, looked like raggedy Ann in comparison (no offense Janis:).

[@zero_bs_tolerance8646]

Our Joan was a wonderful raconteur with a beautiful speaking voice.

[@AmberSlemmer]

This made me cry, I don't know why. I love them both so much. Thank you for sharing.💖💖💖

[@goldduxt]

Glad you enjoyed 💕

[@tommoncrieff1154]

Yours is such a lovely comment. I know exactly why you cried.

[@robertspencer2647]

They were two of the greatest actresses of their time ! They were also beautiful to look at !

[@lapislazuli7876]

Joan was never a great actress. She was a movie star. There’s a difference.

[@tula1433]

00:54 I love when Joan has little cheeky moments like this. She was so naughty sometimes but in such a classy and graceful manner! I’ve seen it in a few interviews!

[@lettylynton1932]

It's so wonderful to hear Joan speak about Garbo. What a treat!! Great stills accompanied Joan's narration.. I can't believe I didn't find this sooner

[@Blumoon_vii]

I can hear Joan talk for hours what a beautiful woman her passion her soul her love and kindness 💗 one of the most beautiful things I ever seen on KZbin thanks for posting

[@hulahands7833]

I love Joan’s voice

[@specteramber]

5:13 Joan hit the nail right on the head, all the way back then. That's why Hollywood has lost a lot of its prestige, actors make themselves too available across every platform, so there's no mystery. It's too much with the house tours, the makeup and skincare routines, the what's in my bag's

[@jaclynholland-strauss7054]

I didn't think I'd ever learn anything new about Garbo again. Bravo! I subscribed.

[@wednesdaychild2408]

❤👍 both are great stars - Joan and Garbo.❤

[@sandrakenney567]

I love these stories 👍. Joan speaks highly of Goreta .Rest in peace to both of them and Godbless them Amen.🙏🕊🕊🕊🕊🕊🦋🦋🦋🦋🌹🌹🌹🌹🌈🙏💖

[@frederickcombs8661]

I watch things like this over and over, hoping for more. She was happy.

[@alexanderv9357]

Спасибо большое, Джоан Кроуфорд! И за титры тоже!

[@tommoncrieff1154]

Garbo photographed timelessly. If you look at her face beyond the period style hair and makeup you realise she could be a supermodel at any time in the last 100 years. Her features are so classic and so perfect that she remains iconic. Joan was iconic herself but in a different, very American, way. One feels Joan desired or needed the validation of being a star, Garbo didn’t want it and walked away. Right at that time Sweden produced another astonishing beauty, a totally different character, Ingrid Bergman. What was wonderful about Garbo is she did walk away, as far as I know, she gave no interviews and wrote no memoirs despite living on for decades and decades. That takes incredible self-discipline.

[@americanitalianisrael4008]

THIS WAS ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC. GREAT VIDEO. THE BLACK+WHITE MOVIES. THE GOLDEN ERA. THE SILENT MOVIES. THE TALKIES. EVERYTHING WAS DONE WITH SUCH SUPERB WORKMANSHIP. GREAT TALENT. GREAT CLASS. GREAT STYLE.GREAT MANNERISM. GREAT VOCABULARY. THESE VIDEOS SHOW US THAT. I DON'T SEE THIS HAPPENING AFTER 100 YEARS WITH THE HORRIFIC JUNK OF TODAY IN MOVIES, MUSIC ETC.

[@berjaboy]

The sad part is, ask many people today, 40 or 50 years old or younger, and they have no idea who Greta Garbo was. But not only Garbo, many big names from Hollywood in the 30s and 40s seem forgotten by most of the people today. I'm 60, and was talking to a friend of mine who was in her 40s, and she had no idea who Barbara Stanwyck was! It's really sad.

[@peterwylliejohnston]

Garbo is certainly the greatest star, but what an incredible superstar Joan Crawford was: also unforgettable.

[@acovenofmany333]

Wow, the pic of Drew Barrymore’s relatives…you can see Drew’s face in theirs!

Garbo the legend ,most beautiful face in movies

[@terry4137]

Really? 🤭

[@ingeabrahamsen4684]

@@terry4137 You don't see it? Her face was stunning. And the camera loved it. It's was like the creator did an extra effort to reach perfection in her case.

[@SamuelLanderos-xr6ue]

Loved how Crawford would prop other female actors. Including Davis, Bette was just so Jealous & couldnt except the admiration . Sad.

[@jhlfsc]

Nah, Bette was just real. Crawford is as phoney as they come.

[@adah771]

​@@jhlfscyeah Joan really had a bad reputation, but she always respected and admired Garbo, maybe she even had a crush on her, I don't know. 😂

[@Armistead_MacSkye]

In terms of their "craft," Greta and Joan both got lucky breaks. They both photographed well. The difference is, Garbo considered it a one-off, and Joan built a decades-long career.

[@martijnkeisers5900]

She does a very good Garbo impersonation 😊

[@paolazuffinetti]

If I am allowed to say something of Miss Greta Lovisa Gustafsson, her "mystery" could be described as follow: she remained the girl of Blekingegatan 32, she didn't give a damn to fame, she was a hardworking person, she valued simplicity and sincerity, she was never a slave to the motion picture machinery. SHE DEFENDED HER PRIVACY. All this could could be a mystery... for the Hollywood film industry mentality. GREAT GRETA❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@anneharlow4890]

music at 2:38? Please 🙌 thank you!

[@philipcullen3962]

Miss Crawford always and will be queen of the gay's....❤❤❤❤❤

[@DeepScreenAnalysis]

Joan wasn’t threatened by Garbo because they were nothing alike. Garbo was an exotic star and Joan was somebody American women could relate to.

[@myphonyaccount]

wow

[@paulsmith8510]

I think Joan was more stunning, personally. Garbo is as well, but idk.

[@VivaSepulchre]

Noice 😊

[@kevinbergin9971]

Retire young, stay pretty.

[@Hihoweryew]

Her story about meeting garbo at the stairs changes during another interview . You cannot believe Joan Crawford at all.

[@lynntownsend4457]

Not lying....she didn't include uncertain facts

[@Hihoweryew]

@@lynntownsend4457 the entire meeting was probably a complete lie. It did probably happen to another actress and Joan just stole it for her own. Read the best of everything blog. Joan complained to another actor how incredibly rude Garbo was to her. So, I doubt Garbo said that to her.

[@бессоветный]

Joan Crawford treated Greta Garbo badly (this is known from the filming of the film Grand Hotel), the more surprising is the late recognition of Greta Garbo's talent by Joan Crawford

[@lynntownsend4457]

No Joan didn't

[@HeWhoWalksBehindTheRows9]

why she keeps saying picture, , nowdays i don't hear actors saying picture anymore

[@Armistead_MacSkye]

Anne Heche (sleep in peace) called them pictures.

[@stevencortiella7609]

Greta Garbo was good in her time but by the 40s she would have lost everything she looked too much like a man her voice wasn't appealing after acting ability was just not the same

[@lynntownsend4457]

but she died worth over $30million

[@Blumoon_vii]

What a shallow thing to say ... I hope People say this about u now

[@lettylynton1932]

I disagree totally- She was very beautiful in the 1940's. Once you can act - it never leaves you.
