I'm actually more familiar with her music than her movies, though the Blue Angel (especially!), The devil is a woman, Morocco and Judgment at Nuremberg are some of my favorites.
I admire what she's done during WW2, but somehow, it's not what i find the most interesting. Her relationship with her homecountry, however...
Damn i think i could talk about her for hours.

There are loads of stories about her, like a plot she had to kill Hitler. Surely that had to be a myth. Oh no I haven't read it, I have been meaning to get her own book myself though. Aaha I haven't been a fan for that long either, but I have always been obsessed with old Hollywood so i tend to "discover" new people that fascinate me so much. I did a mini spam of her pictures on tumblr earlier.

Well, many of those stories are completely crazy. But it feeds the legend.
Yes, i love the Golden age of Hollywood also, it's kind of like my 60's-70's in music .
Could you give me the link of your tumblr please?

Damn i love Bette Davis AND Bette Davis eyes!

Have you heard about that rumor that says that Marlene and Greta hooked up? And then Marlene humiliated her or something? Craaazy.

Bette Davis is my favourite actress EVER. Adore her.

Yes i did hear that they hooked up. LOL. Marlene was bisexual and everyone knows about the Garbo sexuality rumours. How did she apparently humiliate her though? I haven't heard that :O

Thankyou and yes I adore him. Brilliant writer.

:O If that is true then that's sad. How different does Garbo look on that picture.

Well that book doesn't explain much and who knows what happened between the two of them?? But a lot of people said that Marlene was kind of evil.
For example, but you might know, this was found in her appartment in Paris after she died :

Yes people do say she was a b*tch. Apparently her daughters book doesn't paint her in a good light. Is that Meryl Streep? Or am i being stupid? I just read a rumour that she hated Madonna and Meryl.

Yes it's Meryl . I love Meryl .
Yes, i read that too. Woops. Please don't stop loving Marlene!
Apparently Madonna was kind of a huge Marlene fan, so that must have been a bummer for her...

Ahahah nothing could stop me loving Marlene.
Oh i know, I love Madonna ahaha like love Madonna A LOT so how gutting for her. Apparently Garbo didn't like her either. Kind of ironic because they are all mentioned in her song Vogue which is an homage to her favourite actors/actresses.

Yeah i know you love Madonna, i don't post much on The Ledge but i'm kind of...around .
I like Vogue. But i think it's hard for ladies of the 30s or 40s to really understand the message of a (provocative) woman like Madonna, who has very different values from theirs. I know Marlene was "avant-garde", but Madonna? Yeah, they are basically from different worlds.

LMFAO so I guess you have saw me around stating how much I love her and how I have spent a fortune buying tickets to go to both of her UK gigs.

Oh yes, I totally get that. I guess they probably think she is "a bit too much" Bloody hell imagine if they could see some of the girls now, they make Madonna look like a nun...well maybe not that far but you know what I mean. :L

I indeed saw you around stating how much you love her and how you've spent a fortune buying tickets...

Weeeeeeeeell, after watching her last video for "Girls gone wild", i think that Madonna is still the popular Queen of provocation, along with Lady Gaga (Ooooh Marlene would have destroyed her after watching the "Alejandro" official video). But at least they have something to sell and they are talented, you know, not like, say, Kim Kardashian. Or Paris Hilton. Or whatever..

LMFAO whenever I think about how much I have spent on Madonna stuff I just think oh well i don't drink and I don't do drugs so I have to spend my money on something. lol.

She looks so hot in that video. Urgh don't like gaga. I used to but some of her fans on twitter are vile. They act like she invented breathing and everyone who is living is now copying her. So lame, also last week the day before MDNA released they trended everyone buy BTW so Madonna wouldn't get number 1. #minirantover :L
