THE PRIVATE LIFE OF GRETA GARBO 30 flowers. To this day Greta likes to recall the warmth of that welcome she received in Berlin. “The German people are not too personal in their admiration,” she says. “They admire your talent and your work, but it ends there. They are interested in you as an artist, not as a personality. Your life away from the screen or stage is your own.” While Mr. Stiller was attending to business in Berlin, Greta roamed the streets sightseeing. She loved the quaint little shops and cafes that bordered the wide, tree-shaded streets. She liked the friendliness of the German people. She laughed as she struggled with their language. She knew that she could be very happy living in this big city. Mr. Stiller found producers in Berlin willing to back a picture he wanted to make in Constantinople. Greta was to play the leading role. Eniar Hansen (who later came to Hollywood, where he was killed in an automobile accident) was to play opposite her. This trip to Turkey Greta thought would be the greatest adventure of her life. She hurried home to pack her clothes for the journey.
