Garbo is SO cute! I love how she tries to shake her hips like the other lady is doing. She's awesome.

It was absolutely fun watching her-- very humurous. She's excellent.

The best most beautiful, delightful, exquisite screen actress of all time. And an extraordinarily lovely woman.

What incredible radiance she had, like sunshine, like no other.

I've reading more and more about Garbo for the past 3 years. It's now been nearly 90 years since she hit her peak in the 30s and still, there's never been anyone like her.

Una vera Dea , Divina !!! La più bella rumba mai vista , ballare con questa classe , leggerezza , sensualità mai volgare , una bellezza sfacciata , che fa , sparire tutto il resto , sofisticata quel tanto che basta , con un sorriso , che stupendo , incredibile , che illumina tutto e tutti !!! GARBO !!! NON SI PUÒ SFUGGIRE A TANTA , TANTA , TANTA , MERAVIGLIA !!! ROSY 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🌟🌟🌟🌟❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I absolutely LOVED the scene and dance routine 👏🏾👏🏻👏🏽💃🏼

IT MUST HAVE BEEN AN ABSOLUTELY EXQUISITE TIME TO HAVE LIVED IN THOSE DAYS WHEN MOST PEOPLE WERE CLASSY, STYLISH, EDUCATED, BEAUTIFUL, COURTEOUS, GREAT MANNERS ETC. MOVIES, MUSIC, TV. IT WAS ALL SUPERB. GARBO, DAVIS, LEIGH, CRAWFORD, TURNER, HAYWORTH, LEIGH, DIETRICH.ETC.

Very good! Great scene! The actor dancing with Garbo is great too!!

Very nice . Thanks for the video . Greta in her younger years was very beautiful . However she was always elegant and one of the top greatest actresses their ever was if not the best . RIP Greta .

I have a book about Garbo and her movies and in it, the author says this movie was a flop and roundly criticized by the critics. I especially remember they said one nasty critic wrote; "Its almost as embarrassing as seeing your mother drunk!" Seemingly they were saying the director made Garbo appear too hip, contemporary and a free soul and that did not fit in with the exotic nature of her previous roles and persona. I have never understood the criticism. Actors aren't supposed to be the same person in every picture unless they have no acting talent.

I absolutely agree with you about how a talentet actor should be versatile. But Garbo was in a category of her own. And had for years been surrounded with an alluring aura of mystique. She was distant, private and out of reach - which only added to the fascination of her. Now suddenty they saw a woman stripped of all mystery and usual enchantment - and they came to see Garbo - not an equivalent to Myrna Loy, or Ginger Rogers. Also, at that time, the biggest Hollywood stars were much more cut up in the images the filmindustri created for them. On a lesser scale I think John Wayne, Humphrey Bogart and Gary Cooper would also be in trouble, if they played completely out of character :)

This is one of the reasons why I enjoy dancing; because it's fun. I remeber when they showed a clip of this in the film "That's Entertainment Part II". I also loved when Robert Taylor sang "Felling Your Feeling". This old movies are just fantastic.

Love this. Yes, it may not be her best film, but it's still so much fun. Really wish she had made more films after this. And for someone who wasn't a natural dancer, I think she did great!

She must have hated filming this scene lol

Garbo shows that she could deliver funny dialogue naturally and in a totally unforced manner. That is the essence of a comedienne. You catch glimmers of her dry humor in many of her films. This, along with Ninotchka were her only comedies butunfortunately this film was not financial success in the states. Europe, where her films always made money , was closed to the US film market because of the war so the studio, looking at the numbers decided to let her ride out her contract.

Niesamowita. Nie wiem co chcieli od tego filmu krytycy. To jedna z jej najlepszych ról. A scena z tańcem nie do podrobienia. Jedyna w swoim rodzaju

Happy Birthday Greta!

@@jackanthony976 Garbo signed a $200,000 contract in 1948 ($2.1 million in 2018) with producer Walter Wanger, who had produced _Queen Christina_ , to shoot a picture based on French novelist Honoré Balzac's _La Duchesse de Langeais_ , a tale of a beautiful, worldly woman who finally takes a nun's vows and dies at 29. Max Ophüls was slated to adapt and direct. She made several screen tests, learned the script, and arrived in Rome in the summer of 1949 to shoot the picture and accepted a $25,000 ($263,000 in 2018) salary for this preliminary work. However, the financing failed to materialize, and the project was abandoned. The screen tests-the last time Garbo stepped in front of a movie camera-were thought to have been lost for 41 years until they were re-discovered in 1990 by film historians Leonard Maltin and Jeanine Basinger. Parts of the footage were included in the 2005 TCM documentary _Garbo_ . In 1952, she initially had an interest in playing the title role in the film version of Daphne du Maurier's novel _My Cousin Rachel_ , but she later changed her mind and declined the project.

I forgot where I read it, Garbo told a friend "They (the studio) are killing me." She knew the awful quality of this film as she was doing it. Even the costumes weren't made for her, as they always had been... just off the MGM rack. I've seen it a few times over the years on Turner Classics. The big question is why she agreed to do it. The film before, "Ninotchka," was a hit. Ironically, Norma Shearer's career ended with the terrible "We Were Dancing," which, like "Two-Faced Woman" was meant to reinvent and update its star.

Saw Garbo twice in Manhattan . . . was in the 1970's . . . back then there was an unspoken thought - "you know you're a dyed-in-the-wool Manhattanite when you've seen Garbo" - didn't matter if you moved there from Peoria - and wow, she was elegant.

"George Cukor is partly to blame. The director had done some inspired work on "Camille"; but here is content to put Garbo through her athletic paces, doll her up in a Phyllis Diller hairdo, paste a Gloria Swanson smile on her face, and let her drift - then sink. It's sad and ironic that a director so justly famed for eliciting great performances from great ladies should, within a year, preside over the demolition of Irving Thalberg's two grand dames: Garbo here and Norma Shearer in another feeble comedy, "Her Cardboard Lover."

I like the film and Garbo in it. However, I do agree that the film could use some improvement. But remember this, film was badly compromised because of certain demands that the Legion of Decency imposed on MGM. The Legion of Decency demanded that certain scenes be cut because they violated the morals clause. Garbo was then asked to reshoot some scenes to appease the Legion of Decency. Garbo refused stating that the story would be compromised if MGM caved in to the Legion of Decency. MGM caved fearing a blacklash and therefore deleted and reshot some scenes without Garbo making the story seem somewhat contrived and dated. Even with all the concessions made to please the Legion of Decency the film was still condemned by the Legion of Decency which kept many religious people away from the film. However I still think the film has a lot to offer for Garbo and Constance Bennett fans.

Love this scene. One issue I have is that while Adrian designed a gorgeous sequined gown for Constance Bennett ( who looks great) he has Garbo in a cheap dress with absolutely nothing to recommend it. And was intentional. MGM felt that audiences couldn't relate to her so she was to be deglamorized. Adrian was so disgusted by this order that shortly afterwards he left the studio. I another note, her dance partner was Robert Alton, who was the choreographer.

The quote attributed to the disillusioned Adrian was "They were trying to turn her into a 'sweater girl.' When you kill the mystery about Garbo, you kill Garbo." The glory days of the 30s were changing. WWII audiences wanted fresh faces and MGM's Louis Mayer provided them (Hedy Lamarr, July Garland, Lana Turner, Greer Garson). Of the old guard, the ones who had begun before or at the dawn of sound, and all of them Adrian favorites, Garbo and Norma Shearer walked away from their careers, Harlow was dead, and Crawford would soon reinvent herself at Warners.

JACK ANTHONY you misunderstood. They were TRYING to turn Garbo into a sweater girl but she refused and rightly so. She was way too great an actress to succumb to that. That's how Hollywood rolls: it's a commercial and industrial conveyor belt to manufacture looks and fads and styles. The Garbo persona was from another more innocent time and the time was up in this picture. Unfortunately, these studio bosses were rather short-sighted because all they needed to do was make some other pictures that capitalised on her uniqueness while at the same time rolling out their pin ups and sweater girls. It doesn't always have to be one or the other. Many of those studio people and bosses were short sighted, despite their genius in other areas.

James Ryan that black dress she's wearing and her whole look is dreadful. So ordinary that it comes across as sabotage to her. They did the same thing to get rid of John Gilbert: they sabotaged and doctored his voice in his first talkie to make him sound high pitched and nasally. So they would literally be prepared to lose money on certain pictures to get rid of certain stars they no longer wanted to cultivate or sell. Hollywood was like a cut-price supermarket where certain goods were discounted and others discontinued. The neckline on the dress is remarkably low-cut for those times, and I'm surprised to see Garbo in it. It's unlike her. It is so plunging that it is reminiscent of the plunging Hooker-styles worn today. Her hair clips are absurd and oddly placed, and not at all chic, for such a chic actress, and even her hair has been changed away from the typical bob Garbo look that was her signature coiffure. She looks elderly in this and yet wasn't at all! Despite all that, the dance number is pleasant to watch but also rather sad in this context. Garbo was to retreat into being a recluse following this and to let her looks go and live quietly in Manhattan until she died in 1990. I feel sad that her career still had such a long way to go and with the right directors and scripts she could've easily had an interesting career that would've lasted until the very end. Many other huge stars managed to make transitions into television and so on in their later years. Without smart screenplays and producers that can use the talents of these players properly, this is what happens. Humans are so petty and short-sighted (and dumb) that it is rather sickening often to say one belongs to this race called "human". Garbo was best Garbo when she didn't talk, and didn't dance. She played so many dying or suffering women during her hey day, but the evil MGM suits certainly finished her off with this lemon!

Hmmm. First of all did you send me a friend request? We should totally be friends. Anyway, I see what you're saying..it might have tarnished the mysterious image. But Greta was molded by the movie makers to appear a certain way. I think it was pretty much an open secret that she liked women, it didn't require her confirmation. The only man I know she loved at some point was John Gilbert. Btw have you heard about the love letters she sent Mimi Pollack her drama school companion in Sweden?

What's the name of the movie?

*** Two-Faced Woman is a good romantic comedy, with very fun scenes at the ski resort. Unfortunately, the plot is patchy, has weak dialogues and loses a little bit in New York, where little funny thing happens. The best sequence is the dance of rumba with Garbo cheerful and half awkward, similar to the classic Ninotchka. I found her role as a ski teacher quite adequate. I don't know if she used a stunt double, but she's convincing. She appears particularly beautiful dressed in sportswear and also in a black dress, but some costumes don't value her body and hairstyles don't always live up to the beauty and glamor she used to offer the public. Cary Grant would be the ideal match for Garbo, however, Melvyn Douglas bursts out like the awkward student. I really enjoyed the outcome in the gorge. Overall, the movie serves to amuse, but does not come to impress. I think of this movie with a screenplay by Billy Wilder and directed by Preston Sturges. Sure enough, Garbo's career would be saved. The star has lost some of the brilliance of the last decades. I can't explain why. Maybe because her old, black and white movies are no longer being shown on TV channels. I remember that until the 1970s, she was still very popular and revered as a mysterious and enigmatic icon by movie critics and Hollywood colleagues.

That must have been at least two and a half decades ago.

World War 2 audiences may have grown weary of Garbo's mystery and glamour as evidenced by Miss Garbo's declining box office receipts in the 5 years preceding Two Faced Woman. MGM and Garbo had no choice but to create a new image if Garbo was to stay in business. Garbo herself stated that she was not that versatile of an actress and therefore found it hard to play anything other than mysterious and glamourous. However, I think Garbo did a fine job in this film and who cares if she wasn't mysteriouos and glamorous in this film....she had done enough of those already.
