Motion Picture (Aug 1937-Jan 1938)

whose name has been romantically connected with the Swedish star was a foreigner — in eluding Ireland's George Brent. Swedish food is served in Garbo's home, because she prefers it to American. Her clothes are typically European. Her muchdiscussed flat-heeled walking shoes, her loose woolen top coats, are typically continental. Many of her garments such as her sweaters, coats and socks, were purchased in Sweden. Garbo never has liked the bouffante, fussy costumes so popular with the American girl. DURING the twelve years that Garbo has lived in America it is very apparent that she is not interested in becoming acquainted with the life and habits and conditions of various parts of the United States. She does make an occasional trip to the mountains or up the coast. She has spent a few days in New York before taking her boat for Sweden. Even then she patronizes her favorite Swedish restaurant. It is to Sweden that Garbo speeds whenever her vacation will allow time for the trip. It is in Sweden, on the shore of the Baltic Sea, which she loves, that Garbo slips off her mantle of aloofness and reserve. Had Garbo any intention of becoming Americanized, she would have taken out citizenship papers long ago. Instead, she preferred to go through the red tape necessary to secure a permit to prolong her stay in this country.

According to well-founded information, at present, her brother Swen, over in Sweden, is industriously engaged in developing and improving the great country estate of his sister's, in anticipation of the time when she will retire from the screen. These broad acres, of lush fields and wooded groves, stretch down to Garbo's beloved sea. It is here, in the near future, that Garbo will forget Hollywood with its qauint American manners, its often heartless tactics and its too, too swift American pace of living. It is in her native Sweden where the screen's most famous actress will revert back to what she always has been in her heart — a Szvenska flicke. No indeed, Garbo is not becoming Americanized even if she does like swing music and occasionally indulges in a bit of American slang. For Garbo does have a sense of humor, and the American slanguage has comedy values all its own. In Madame Walewska Garbo has a historical romance of Napoleon's life. And Charles Boyer plays the part of Napoleon "Marchand's is so easy to use and has made such an amazing improvement in my appearance and popularity. "-M.R.W.
