Greta Garbo has for sometime now being my favourite film star of all time; so it was extremely exciting earlier this year when the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences released footage of a rarely before seen screen test of Queen Christina photographed by William H. Daniels.
These tests are a sumptuous array of Garbo posing alongside moments where she is relaxed and at ease. Both in close up and long shot she looks radiant and pulchritudinous; and since their release in January we have an exciting exclusive from my friends at GarboForever.com.
Mark A. Vieira, author of some of the greatest photographic collection of some of my favourite stars, has provided some insight into the actual footage HERE . Please click the link to read more about these tests, especially interesting is the analysis from a photographic aspect. Hopefully there will be future "lost" footage of The Divine Woman (both Garbo and the film).
