  • Garbo Talks is a 1984 film directed by Sidney Lumet. It stars Anne Bancroft as a terminally ill woman who asks her son, Gilbert, to help her fulfill her last wish: to meet Greta Garbo. As her son, played by Ron Silver, carries out his search for Garbo, he confronts his deteriorating relationship with his wife and develops an interest in a struggling actress. The movie was written by Larry Grusin and also stars Carrie Fisher, Catherine Hicks and Steven Hill. Bancroft was nominated for a Golden Globe. Other supporting roles are played by Howard Da Silva and Dorothy Loudon, as a down-on-his-luck paparazzo and his agent; Harvey Fierstein, as a gay man that Gilbert meets on the Fire Island ferry, and Hermione Gingold, a nearly senile actress who once worked with the elusive Garbo. Broadway songwriter Betty Comden plays Garbo, and her writing partner Adolph Green has a cameo. Greta Garbo's low, husky voice and Swedish accent was first heard on screen in Eugene O'Neill's Anna Christie (1930), which was publicized with the slogan "Garbo Talks."

  • Garbo Talks é um filme estadunidense de 1984 do gênero "Drama", com roteiro de Larry Grusin e dirigido por Sidney Lumet. O título foi retirado de um slogan do primeiro filme sonoro (1930) da atriz e estrela do cinema mudo Greta Garbo, quando sua voz foi ouvida em uma película pela primeira vez, pelo público. O filme explora o fato de Greta Garbo, depois de ter deixado o cinema ainda como estrela, tornar-se totalmente reclusa, a evitar qualquer contato com o público e a mídia.
