SWEDISH BELLES: INGRID BERGMAN VS. GRETA GARBO

[Danny L]

Ingrid is a cutie. Soo beautiful..

[Sylvie]

Ingrid Bergman is such a soft, natural beauty. Garbo has classic features, but looks a little hard and bored.

[Buck Turgidson]

I love them both. Both were beautiful, and both had guts. I'd favor Bergman by a little.

[Antonio]

[ColinM]

Certinaly Ingrid in the looks and acting departments.

I adore Greta Garbo and her mysterious flair and all, but she has NOTHING on my girl Ingrid.

Miss Bergman is without a doubt the most beautiful woman that ever lived on earth. Some of the true beautiful women in my mind are the ones with such natural, pure, radiant beauties to them. Ingrid had all that and MORE; lookswise, she's as perfect as the next, not only is there such cleanness to her apperance that just makes me feel so comfortable whenever I look at her on screen, but the honest, soulful, delicate warmth sweeped across her lets her whole presence speak out in such an amazing, romantic way. Her BEAUTIFUL (most beautiful, in fact) eyes are reminiscent to such clean, shining diamonds sitting in a peaceful room without ANY disturbance; they're especially beautiful when they are shot in close up (like the scene when Gregory Peck kisses her in Spellbound, and her eyes are perfectly captured). But not only that, there's warmth to her; everything about her mature looks and maturity personality wise gives her a everlasting warmth, and that's what I especially like in women. Then there's also that certain class, that never seems fake for a single second. It's truly a truthful class that matches perfectly with her nice, comfortable physical features. In all her life time, she has always looked so beautiful and SO real; without makeup, her presence is still so easy on the eyes and her radiance is still able to come out, whether it's from the inside or the outside. And of course, her beautiful, wavy, ocean waves like hair can capture my eyes in just a half a second, and I'll be in love. I was in love with her quite a couple years ago (first classic actress I was ever familiar with, and first woman I ever had such a crush on), I'm even more in love with her now, and I'll always be in love with her, and worship her......to eternity.

Oh, and of course, her acting.......simply masterful, second best actress that ever lived.

I'm gonna say Garbo, I just feel like it today.:) Both are equally talented and equally beauitful, just in very different ways.

Ingrid is one of my favorites. Love her.

[Tagia_Romero]

I love them both on different levels because they are one of a kind and I don't like to judge my fellow Europeans.

[Indiana Sev]

Ingrid in a very close race.
