Re: Coming in 2005

[Nakis]

Hello John and thank you so much for the list which fills us with anticipation for 2005. I really hope to see one day the full tests of "La Duchesse" as well, I have only seen extracts in various documentaries. Also to add in the program, the french channel "Histoire", has announced that it will pay tribute to Garbo, I think it will be in june 2005 probably with a documentary.

Hello an interesting link at the Ne York Times with isabelle Huppert "recreating" the Garbo in Steichen's photos under the direction of Robert Wilson.

Hello John

If you are talking about the Huppert doing Garbo it is from the New York Times. There is only one picture with Huppert doing the famous Garbo pose with Wilson next to her. Just copy the link as a main adress and try to see it. I found it by searching on google news with "Greta Garbo" on the search engine. Try and let me know if there is a problem.

Thank you again for your kind words and I will try and find out more infos. Personally i have not yet recovered from the Two faced Woman uncersorced version.

Hello again (Yes I do love TFW too). By the way I was trying to put that link that night about an upcoming exhibition of Garbo (my german is pretty bad) but I think it must be in Berlin.

Take care and lets find out more and more and more about 2005. For my part, as I live in France I am first looking forward for the french book "La véritable Greta Garbo" which comes out in january.

Thank you John

If all goes well for 2005 I will make the trip Paris-Berlin for the exhibition. I will also keep you posted about any events in France as well on the Divine.

Hello John and thank you (a little bit late), yes I would love to come to Berlin at some point especially if there is something on Garbo, so let us stay in touch.

Today I got this mail from the Garbo society at Hogsby (I became a member) where they give my some information on 2005, it sounds promising :

Oh Johnny, I sure hope all of these things happen in 2005 - especially the DVD's so we'll have GG with us forever!

Thanks for the update,

I've always thought Huppert looked a lot like Garbo, her mouth definitely.
