About Garbo 关于嘉宝
Greta Lovisa Gustafsson better known as Greta Garbo, was a noted Swedish actress and recluse. She was a major star in the United States during the silent film era and the Golden Age of Hollywood. In 1999, the American Film Institute ranked Garbo fifth on their list of greatest female stars of all time.Garbo launched her career with a major role in the Swedish film The Saga of Gosta Berling. Her performance caught the attention of Louis B. Mayer, who brought her to Hollywood in 1925 to work at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM). She became a star of silent films.
Garbo was one of the few actresses to negotiate the transition to sound. Her first talking film was Anna Christie (1930), for which she was nominated for an Academy Award. MGM marketers enticed the public with the catchphrase "Garbo talks!" In 1932, her popularity allowed her to dictate the terms of her contract, and she became increasingly choosy about her roles.
She received the New York Film Critics Circle Award for Best Actress for Anna Karenina (1935), but she considered her performance as the courtesan Marguerite Gautier in Camille (1936) her best performance; the role gained her a second Academy Award nomination. After working exclusively in dramatic films, Garbo turned to comedy with Ninotchka (1939) and Two-Faced Woman (1941). For Ninotchka, Garbo was again nominated for an Academy Award; Two-Faced Woman did well at the box office, but was a critical failure.
After 1941, she retired after appearing in 27 films, and became increasingly reclusive. She has been indelibly linked to one of her lines from the film Grand Hotel: "I want to be alone". She later remarked, "I never said, 'I want to be alone.'I only said, 'I want to be let alone.'There is all the difference." To the end of her life, Garbo-watching became a sport among the paparazzi and the media, but she remained elusive up until her death in 1990 at the age of 84.
在一个明星们绞尽脑汁，不惜使尽浑身解数，"争先恐后"出现在公众视线的年代，很难理解一位正处于事业巅峰的名人竟然能淡泊名利，远离鲜花和掌声，毅然抽身隐退！她是否是厌倦了扮演"象征"的日子，仅仅是奢望回归"人"的正常生活？(嘉宝在《瑞典女王》中的台词，也许是最贴近她自身写照的电影)，或许她是如此脆弱，担心万一有朝一日招致挫败时，无力面对摄相机镜头？
现存的可以对嘉宝进行评价的唯一的根据就是她留给世人的影片。同其他虚构人物玛里琳·门罗或是詹姆斯·迪安相比，嘉宝至少还留有作品。尽管她在早期作品如《罗曼史》或《激流》中的表现确实是愚蠢的，但在《卡米尔》《瑞典女王》和《尼诺奇卡》中的表现的确是可圈可点，至今令人难以忘怀。或许没有影星在退出银幕这么多年后，仍能被观众久久追忆，但葛丽泰·嘉宝却做到了！
