Anna Karenina (1935)




The married Anna Karenina falls in love with  a Count despite her husband's refusal to grant a divorce, and both must contend with the social repercussions.

Classic and still crisp Hollywood adaptation of the Tolstoy novel, accurately executed despite the expected abridgements.

Two-Faced Woman (1941)




While at a ski lodge, the editor of a successful New York magazine meets a female ski instructor and marries her.

Rather average romantic comedy in the star's very last screen role.

P.S.: I probably would have quit, too, if my face were distorted like on that movie poster above.

Camille (1936)




A Parisian courtesan must choose between the young man who loves her and the callous baron who wants her, even as her own health begins to fail.

This Alexandre Dumas adaptation is one of Hollywood's classic tearjerkers, a perfect role for Great Garbo, still watchable after all these years.
