Miguel
(Spain) on Greta Garbo
"... because all in her is beauty, charm and gentleness".
Heather
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"... because she has extraordinary acting skills and her personality and
mine are very similar... but why does it matter, the point is that she's my
favourite."
Mar
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"Gorgeous, mysterious - she owned her life."
Jaime
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She was able to defy the world with her beauty & intelligence."
Israel
(Spain) on Greta Garbo
"I know there are great actresses much more modern that Greta, but she's
still unique, her eyes are very special, I really like her life too, it would
be a great movie as well, don't you think so?"
José
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She epitomizes what a screen actress/legend/diva/star is. Great
actress. Superb beauty. Unique behaviour."
Kicki
(Sweden) on Greta Garbo
"Her life, her attitude, her withdrawal from the world!
Garbo is the greatest diva on the screen ever."
Jessica
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"Just so mysterious, there is no one like Garbo."
Ellinor
(Sweden) on Greta Garbo
"Unforgettable."
M.T.
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"Fabulous."
Julian
(Colombia) on Greta Garbo

most beautiful, finally she was with ABBA the major export article of Sweden."
Alberto
(Peru) on Greta Garbo
"There is no one like her."
Gurra
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She is divine."
Demetris
(Cyprus) on Greta Garbo
"The screen's greatest actress."
Michel
(Canada) on Greta Garbo
"I first saw Greta Garbo movies when I was only 15 years old, introduced
to me by my mother, it was a Garbo television festival every Sunday night, all
of her 27 movies were presented, of course my reaction was at the first
degree. As time went by after watching these movies again & again I came
to realize that this woman had tremendous genius, her acting skills were
simply witchcraft, her beauty to behold. Anybody starting an acting career
should study Greta Garbo's acting & presence in front of a camera, a lot
of today's actors should consider that. After Garbo... maybe Bergman or
Taylor... Hepburn."
Simon
(UK) on Greta Garbo
"That face of course. No cosmetic surgery. It was all there naturally.
She had no bad angles. Her acting was all instinct. Not much in the way of
formal training and yet so emotive and natural. Easy to see why audiences in
the '20's and '30's were enthralled."
Janet
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She's mysterious, lovely, aloof-- and a beauty in my eyes."
Barbara
(Poland) on Greta Garbo
"... because she never sold herself and she was really wonderful, not
just a beautiful actress."
Sam
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She is inspirational."
Nichole
(Canada) on Greta Garbo
"The talent, how she lived her life based on her own rules and not
society's. How she never revealed herself to the public, never sold out."
Tagre
(Chile) on Greta Garbo
"... because she was a diva all the time and she had what none else ever
had: her unique aura. She was the best actress and she could get off the stage
at the peak of her success. She will always remain a real diva. Her legend
will continue."
José
(Spain) on Greta Garbo
"Greta Garbo ha sido única: grandiosa como actriz, de fuerte
personalidad como mujer. Lamento que no haya interpretado las películas que
pudo haber protagonizado magistralmente."
Dena
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She had it all... There will never be another Garbo. Mystery, allure,
androgny, class, humor, true talent. A face that could launch a thousand
ships. Perennial sex-appeal. I wish I could have known her. She was so
beautiful to me, I could stare at that face for days. I wish I could
have made love to such a woman. What a woman."
Tom
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"Beauty, charisma, and intelligence... and I love her accent!"
Susan
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"No one equals Garbo for sheer perfection of facial features. It is
a shame she never made a color movie so people could appreciate the blue of
her eyes and her golden hair. They will have to be content with the size
of her eyes, her long lashes, the pure lines of brow and the sweep of her
cheekbones. She's so beautiful she's almost not pretty at all."
Oook
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"No one can touch her. She stands alone."
Renee
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"Let's face it, she outfaced us all, in the centenary of her birth, she
still remains an honest woman in an artificial world which allowed us all to
gaze upon her! She's not only an actress but a canvass in flesh that kicked Hollywood's
ass and became the greatest screen icon of the 20th century! God Bless
GG forever! There is only one Divine one, Garbo is it! Thank you for a
wonderful site and for continued success!"
Ramon
(Argentina) on Greta Garbo
"Es la mas bella mujer que ha dado el cine."
Marie
(France) on Greta Garbo
"Greta Garbo was a great fashion icon and she had style and class!"
Nathan
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"Greta Garbo is my favorite diva because she was, in my opinion the
perfect woman. Not only could her looks kill, she is probably one of the most
talented actresses that ever lived in the history of the film industry. Every
woman should strive to be like her. She was enigmatic, powerful, opinionated,
strong and above all beautiful. She is the most beautiful, mysterious, and
talented woman that I have ever been able to see in any form. She possesses
such austere dignity and yet still seems somehow to be very warm. I will never
forget the first time that I saw "Grand Hotel" that line that is so
famous, "I want to be alone." Can anybody ever surpass the sorrow
yet love that encompasses everything Garbo? Heck no! You cannot even think
about divas without including the comely Greta Garbo."
Bobbi
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She is totally gorgeous and way more talented than 90% of all actresses!
She was classic, and should be the top Diva, most definitely. Everyone
should have Greta Garbo as their inspiration, whether or not they want to act
in the future. Actresses these days suck and hold no candle to Greta."
Jenilyn
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"Greta Garbo is my favorite diva because she is such a beautiful,
exquisite actress. She reminds me of myself and I have a lot in common
with her, and she is one of my top idols. I want to be just like her
when I'm older. I love her."
Agnetha
(Sweden) on Greta Garbo
"Greta is somebody who no one can ever replace. She is somebody no one
can ever try to understand. I respect her."
Jasmine
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"... because she was so beautiful and mysterious. She didn't care what
anybody thought about her. She wouldn't compromise who she was as a person."
Claude
(Canada) on Greta Garbo
"Simple-- She was the greatest!"
Irina
(Israel) on Greta Garbo
"She's an adorable ethereal goddess whom I will worship all my life. Her
marble-like face is similar to those of ancient sculptures of Greek goddesses,
her eyes are oceans. Her voice is a breeze. her hair is pure silk. Her lips
are petals of roses. Her gaze is sometimes so innocent and sweet, sometimes so
severe and cold. She's the perfect beauty. I idolize Greta Garbo."
Shiori
(Spain) on Greta Garbo
"... because she is the one, no one compares to her, her beauty, all of
her was perfect."

(Brazil) on Greta Garbo

appropriate for all eras!"
Yiannis
(France) on Greta Garbo
"Garbo is the ultimate screen actress, the greatest actress of all time,
the most beautiful and the greatest star of all. And she is a unique example,
she did not have to be a diva or play the star. What she had to give she gave
to the camera. The rest was for herself and for us to dream."
Matt
(Canada) on Greta Garbo
"She has the face of the century, and she is a mystery."
Darra
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"Her timeless beauty and refusal to capitulate to others."
Tonya
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"A mysterious, exceptional beauty. Mona Lisa? Who's that? I wish I could

want to meet Garbo!"
Michael
(New Zealand) on Greta Garbo
"She was the most photogenic woman ever. She was also a brilliant actress"
Amanda
(USA) on Greta Garbo

"She can act and capture the fire in the hearts of all of her admirers."
Kamala

I truly believe they have stopped making stars like her."
Allan
(France) on Greta Garbo
"She's my favorite diva because of her attractive beauty, her mystery, her

actress."

Lynn

"She has the attitude, look, and talent of a true diva!"
Ann
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She was always to diversify herself in any movie she played in. Let
alone in her pictures. One of the old timers... but yet still countless in
time."
Leslie
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"... because she's unique and full of mystery - literally!"
Antonio
(Italy) on Greta Garbo

my kind of lover."

Joop
(Holland) on Greta Garbo
"... because she has the most beautiful face ever on screen."
Josh
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"Greta Garbo was the most intriguing woman that ever lived. Her life was
at once infinitely joyous and sad, even her comedy was shaded with melancholy.
She held her private life dear to her and that gift is special in an age of
recognition-hungry starlets."
Lovisa
(Sweden) on Greta Garbo
"... because she has everything, she was a charismatic, beautiful and a
supremely talented actress. And she came from Sweden!"
Marina
(Greece) on Greta Garbo
"... because she is magic! I think of her as a fairy and not a human being. I
loved her at once, from the first time I saw her in a scene in Camille, I
adored her! She is unique. But the most ravishing fact about Garbo is her
acting. Many great divas loved her and were inspired by her art and her unique
expression like Maria Callas in La Traviata."
Kattis
(Sweden) on Greta Garbo
"The world has never seen anyone like Greta Garbo. Extremely talented and
extremely good-looking. Not to mention that she set a new trend as to how
actresses should look, before her they were all small with curly hair, then
she came along, very tall with straight hair and big feet. Beautiful."
Alberto
(Peru) on Greta Garbo
"... because she is part human, part divine."
Conny
(Germany) on Greta Garbo
"She was a great actress (very talented). It's amazing that she was born
in poverty and became one of the most famous actresses!"
Crystal
(Canada) on Greta Garbo
"I only saw one movie, but it touched me in such a way that I can not
explain. The movie I saw was Grand Hotel- 1932. Her face is so beautiful that
I laminated a photo of her and put it in my wallet to show her off to
everyone. Greta Garbo, even now is still a big movie star."
Grace
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"Do you have to even ask! One of the reasons why I am such a Garbo fan is
because she is in my opinion one of the most fascinating women that has ever
lived. She seems to be a whole mass of contradictions. Although she was one of
the most talented, beautiful, adored actresses during her time she was
indifferent to her fame and fiercely guarded her privacy while she was being
thrust in the public eye. She was well known for her shyness and was equally
well known for her bluntness. She had a charismatic and magnetic personality
and yet sometimes acted like a frightened child. There's an aura of loneliness
and sadness around her. No one could completely understand her and she
couldn't be classified as any type. When she arrived in Hollywood, she wrote a
friend a letter telling her that the MGM studio producers were having
difficulty casting her in a film because 'they don't have a type for me here.'
Also, I am also amazed at how different she looks in her films and pictures.
Somehow she manages to completely transform herself for a picture or a film. I
also find it intriguing that at the height of her fame, she walked out of
movies forever. I don't think anyone will ever understand her, but I think she
will continue to fascinate and intrigue people for generations to come. As the
great one said herself, 'There will never be another Garbo. No, there will
never be another Garbo. I'm different inside.'"
Lee
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"Class, elegance and grace!"
Jessica
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She was the most beautiful woman in history of film, there will never be
anyone like her again!"
Elisabetta
(Italy) on Greta Garbo
"She was a great, a very great actress, very fascinating and very
beautiful. She didn't seem to act but to live her roles in the movies. She had
a great talent, and her face, so beautiful, expressive, magic, is
unforgettable."
Gurra
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"Garbo was and is divine. There will never be another actress that even
comes close to her in beauty, talent or mystique."
Deirdra
(Canada) on Greta Garbo
"... because when I was younger, I bought a portrait of Garbo, from a
scene in Mata Hari, by Clarence Sinclair Bull, and she followed you everywhere
with her eyes, and I simply fell in love with the mysterious, beautiful,
sensual face of Greta... Lost it in a separation, and never found another one
exactly like it!"
Sydney
(Canada) on Greta Garbo
"She was completely stunningly beautiful in a truly classic sense. She
did not compromise or buy in to the Hollywood lifestyle. She was always
herself and did not succumb to societal pressures in that she never married.
She was smart; she knew when to quit. She also knew exactly how to create a
mystique even though she probably scorned the idea. She is probably
laughing at us right now as I write and you read about her. That is why she is
a diva extraordinaire!"
Margaret
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She is beautiful, talented, flirty, magnificent. No one will ever
measure up to her. She had such charm."

(Canada) on Greta Garbo
"There was just that something about her."

(Finland) on Greta Garbo

another pretty face, because she speaks to my soul, I feel at home when I'm
watching her move, speak, and everything."
Val
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She did it her way."
Priscilla
(USA) on Greta Garbo

Greta
(USA) on Greta Garbo

Tisha
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"Her beauty overcomes me!"
Maria
(Sweden) on Greta Garbo

natural and convincing personalities. A diva to me means someone with great
integrity and Greta Garbo was a beautiful survivor because she had a lot of
integrity."
Jeanette
(Holland) on Greta Garbo
"The best actress I have ever seen, even in her silent movies she had a
charisma and didn't look as old fashioned as some of the other actors from
that time. When you look at her films now, you could take her out and put her
in a movie made in 2001 and she would look just fine, like she was standing
there right now, that's what I call a diva."
Drew
(New Zealand) on Greta Garbo
"Her face was a clean flat surface on which you could superimpose any
emotion you wished, plus she stuck her fingers up at Hollywood."
Linda
(Sweden) on Greta Garbo
"She can tell everything she feels with just a move in her lovely face...
she is so beautiful. Everything about Greta is divine! I love her!"
Mark
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"Her mystique, aloofness and beauty."
Hanne
(Norway) on Greta Garbo

"Well aside from people saying I look like her, her mystery and the fact
that she was a legend and at one time a bisexual makes me have an affinity for
her."
Laura
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She was absolutely beautiful. She had an air of sadness about her, and

pictures and her history."

(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She had a way of lighting up the screen with just the right spunk and
delight."
Arref
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She told the world she wanted to be left alone and she made it stick.
She was a real woman. A woman who understood herself. She worked the world
like a diva and the world loved it."

"... because she is quite simply the greatest, the most beautiful and
most fascinating screen actress of all time."
Gillian
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She had the beauty, and the grace, and all the style. By far one
of the most beautiful women to ever walk the face of the earth."
Elaine
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She had the most
incredible screen magic! Her face! Her voice! Her walk! When she's on
screen one cannot look at any other actors except her! Amazing!
Never saw such a screen presence like hers! I feel Bo Derek 'might' be
able to play garbo's life story if it were
ever brought to film ... with right makeup, voice coach, etc. Any comments?
Thanx for allowing me to vote. Send more Garbo magic to me..

misma."
Lucy
(UK) on Greta Garbo
"She was the most glamourous and popular film star of the 1920's and
30's. Her voice and eyes were the most expressive of any actress and she photographed
beautifully. Isolating herself after retirement gave her an air of
mystique, refusing to destroy the illusion for anyone she was intensely fascinating."

talented, underrated actress who possessed a wonderful sense of style,

"Just cuz!"
Michael
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"Greta Garbo is God. Some people only think they are better than other
people, Greta is better. She does not even have to give you the time of day
but she will ... if she feels like it ... and then you will be grateful. Get
it? Also she is Swedish, a Scandi ... so she is automatically superior to
Americans. See?"
Milee
(Italy) on Greta Garbo
Simply beautiful, expressive face, both mysterious and friendly at the same
time ... unique!
Jay
Leslie (Canada) on Greta Garbo
I think this "diva(title)-thing" is being used too much, and on
every woman/girl who hits the public eye for 5 minutes (a publicity ploy ?)
who has a little attitude. But if there was ever a diva extraordinaire in
Hollywood in the 30's it was Garbo. Every time I read about her in
bios on her, and in other stars' bios (including other divas') it seems
everyone was in awe of her. If anyone was born to be a diva (reluctant though
she was to it accept it) it was most definitely GARBO, the dream goddess of
eternity - the knockout of the ages.
Carmen
(Brazil) on Greta Garbo
"She is very beautiful."
Andre
(Brazil) on Greta Garbo
"She was the first, she was erotic with her eyes not with her body. She
was beautiful, sad , not commercial or stupid."
Mar
(Bermuda) on Greta Garbo
"The best!"
José
(Brazil) on Greta Garbo
"… because she is The Divine."
Alice
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She is so sultry and mysterious. I just can't stop watching her. She is
a fantastic persona."
Maria
(Spain) on Greta Garbo
"… cause she was so mysterious, beautiful, elegant, and I like her performances. And the way she looked in photos. The uncommon woman. Sometimes I
wanna be like her."
John
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"Matchless beauty, stellar performances, alluring life!"
Eric
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"Like there is any choice? The one woman no man could have!"
Jack
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"Most beautiful and mysterious!"
Françoise
(France) on Greta Garbo
"C'est une actrice tres mystérieuse et surtout une excellente actrice!"
Audrey
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She was magical. Cannot put it into words."
Arnel
(Philippines) on Greta Garbo
"Is there anyone as mesmerizing as Garbo?"
Grecia
(Mexico) on Greta Garbo
"No one like Garbo! She never won an Oscar, but nobody has doubts about
her "divine" performances. Garbo is the essence of a real actress
mixed with the divine aura. No one like her."
Artemisia
(Italy) on Greta Garbo
"Greta Garbo forever!"
Katie
(Hong Kong) on Greta Garbo
"She is one of my many favorites but right now I am in the middle of
having an obsession with her. Her melancholic beauty is unique and she is
supreme and behaved liked like a queen! A true diva!"
Dusty
(UK) on Greta Garbo
"Greta is my favourite because she was so unique, so interesting. There
was always that mystery, and no one's really solved it. She made movies
interesting."
Claudio
(Brazil) on Greta Garbo
"Unmatched style and charms. Mystery all around her compose all the mist
in her personality."
Jaime
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She's always been my favorite because she's immortalized by her beauty
and inner strength and her non-conformist demeanor. She was able to do what
she wanted and was self-sufficient and I can say there will be no one else
like her!"
Daniela
(Italy) on Greta Garbo
"Greta is wonderful, she has a particular glance, her face, her eyes are
magic!"
Chip
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"The face is fabulous. The wide spacing between the eyes is most unique.
The arched brows have not been duplicated. The soaring height of the lids, the
space between the eyelash and the upper fold is luxurious, the space between
that upper fold and the brow deserves major recognition. The lips, pure
architecture. The length of the eyelashes, natural, super-long. Cheekbones
curved to match the streamlining of the day. And something about the
expressions, her sulking, moody temperament, aloof, yet needing a
compassionate response ... I've been hooked for years! Was she not the most
famous woman in the world during her time? If she were young and alive today,
would it not be the same? I went to the auction, I came back with two pieces
that revealed their own secrets about her secrets. I have painted eight
portraits of her and have met a relative in New York. I'm still one of the
biggest fans. Thanks for letting me have a moment here. Great site!"
Nermin
(Croatia) on Greta Garbo
"Clean, natural, without makeup. Her acting could make me laugh or cry.
She was the smartest diva ever in cinema. After she passed away she was an
even more mysterious lady than when she was alive. Once again, her face was so
amazing!"
Chyyna
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"... because she really knew how to work that face of hers."
Catman
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"Greta mixes intelligence and sophistication with great passion and
feeling. She had the on-screen power to convince audiences of her noble
intentions and a beauty built on sensual credibility to arouse the best
intentions in men's motives and principles. I will never forget the reluctance
of the firing squad ordered to execute her - after she casually extracts her
cigarettes from her garter."
Luisa
(Italy) on Greta Garbo
"She is the symbol of femininity and a great artist!"
Ron
(Holland) on Greta Garbo
"Beauty, mystery, focus on goals in life, virgo, sensitivity!"
Bruno
(Brazil) on Greta Garbo
"She is from Sweden and reminds me of Agnetha Fältskog coz Agnetha today
lives 'alone' on her island in Sweden and rarely appears anywhere."
Leo
(UK) on Greta Garbo
"Greta is a divine inspiration for glamour and beauty and the deepest
emotions of love and matters of the heart. Greta Garbo was one of the most
beautiful women of the 20th Century or even ever. A remarkable soul that
hasn't died, despite the death of her body in 1990. Her myths and legendary
status as a classic icon (Probably the last this world will see) have
flourished rather than dimmed since her departure from film in 1941 - a wise
move and one of many. Greta Garbo wasn't a bimbo or a glamour-puss, but a
highly sophisticated and divine person - a fact that has remained undisputed !
In January 1998 I wrote a song about her ('Aphrodite Reborn' - a reference to
the closing credits to her film, 'Queen Christina') and perhaps, one day, it
might get released - Greta Garbo will continue to influence people in the 21st
Century!"
David
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She was the last true star. She had a screen presence that has never
been seen again. Her mystique will never be matched, nor will her vulnerable
beauty. No one else could play Queen Christina like Garbo, and no one else has
ever even come close in Camille or Anna Karenina. I feel that films became
almost silent again, after Garbo left Hollywood. She was the divine Garbo."
Laura
(Portugal) on Greta Garbo
"Three words: determination, beauty, vanguard."
Cristina
(Mexico) on Greta Garbo
"... because she just is!"
Helen
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"... because Garbo can convey more with a lift of an eyebrow, a facial
expression or a hand gesture than any actress I have ever seen then or now."
Robert
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"For me, she is by far the most beautiful of the acting divas. Garbo has
an amazing mystery about her, as well as being glamourous and exotic!"
Orionis
(Singapore) on Greta Garbo
"... because she acts remarkably well, is aloof to the world, intelligent
remarks, and mysterious, mysterious ... and she has The Face indeed. Is a
strong independent type of actress uncommonly shy."
Vgikula
(Portugal) on Greta Garbo
"... because of her beautiful face!"
Piotr
(Portugal) on Greta Garbo
"... because she is divine!"
Elisa
(Italy) on Greta Garbo
"... because she's the greatest actress of the century and she was so
beautiful that no one could be compared to her face and her great elegance! She
is a myth for every generation."
J.K.
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"Greta Garbo is the epitome of Chic and Sexy as well as Intelligent!"
Thiago
(Brazil) on Greta Garbo
"She is the most beautiful woman of the century."
Amberly
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She was the most beautiful woman in the world. She was mysterious,
alluring, captivating. She was, in a word, magical."
Tina
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She is absolute."
Phillip
(USA) on Greta Garbo
"She had the most
beautiful and perfect face of the century and her mysterious persona only
peaked our curiosity about her."
John (USA) on
Greta Garbo
"She is the actress. She is
the one critics inevitably compare others to. She was as perfect as the
directors and the scripts allowed her to be."
