Catch the luminous Garbo on TCM July 21st. Thanks to a glut of Westerns on TCM this month, there’s not a whole lot of pre-Codin’ going on right now. Still, out of the handful of pre-Code films airing in July, I did manage to find one for my pre-Code pick: Queen Christina (1933). Starring Greta Garbo read more

In praise of Christina Lindberg, goddess of Swedish sexploitation

Studies in Cinema Posted by Jeremy Carr on Nov 2, 2015

It all started with Exposed. I’m not sure what brought this 1971 Swedish sexploitation film to the suggestion portion of my Netflix account (presumably the roster of Jess Franco films recently added), but after reading the description, I figured it was worth a shot: “A pretty young t read more

QUEEN CHRISTINA ( 1933 )

In The Good Old Days Of Classic Hollywood Posted by Crystal Kalyana on Sep 5, 2015

“I’m tired of being a symbol, Chancellor, I long to be a human being! This longing I cannot suppress.”. Greta Garbo as Queen Christina states victoriously to Chancellor. Just the title itself is regal, but when you combine it with the mystique charm and sexual allure of Greta Garb read more

Book Review: ANN DVORAK: HOLLYWOOD'S FORGOTTEN REBEL by Christina Rice

Ann Dvorak is one of my favorite actresses. Not a star of the magnitude of Barbara Stanwyck or Joan Crawford or her Warner Brothers team mate, Bette Davis, she certainly deserves more than the usual “who”” or “I don’t know anything about her” that are the usual re read more
