Comment: H.D. writes that Greta Garbo, in a little house dress, an apron and low slippers, sweeping the passage of the improvident home in Joyless Street, remained an aristocrat. Greta Garbo, as the wife of a russian Court official and the mistress of a man of the world, diademed and in sweeping robes in the Palace of Karenin, was a house-maid at a carnival.Greta Garbo remains Greta Garbo. […] Anyhow for the present, let us be thankful that she, momentarily at least, touched the screen with her purity and glamour. The screen has been touched by beauty, and the screen, in spite of all the totems, must finally respond, Polyphemus of our latest day, to the mermaid enchantment. |
