Description

"Garbo laughs!" read the headlines after Oscar-honoree and screen legend Greta Garbo ("Queen Christina," "Grand Hotel") bursts into a rare bit of onscreen laughter during her portrayal of a cold-hearted Soviet agent who is warmed up by a trip to Paris and a night of love with Oscar-winner Melvyn Douglas ("Hud"). Inducted into the Library of Congress National Film Registry and recently selected by the prestigious American Film Institute as one of the top 400 American Films of all time.

  • Garbo Laughs...

    ...was the tagline for this movie way back when it came out. Although Garbo did laugh in other films, just not to this extent! Watch for the moment when Melvyn Douglas asks Garbo if she is jealous whie they are pitching woo in his Paris apartment. Her mere vocalization of "uh huh" will make you melt every time! If yo are a Garbo fan grab this one in digital format and keep it on your iPod. You will not regret it! Enjoy! Now "I vant to be left aloowne!"
