The film Garbo and producer Walter Wanger tried to "remake" in 1949/1950. James Mason was signed to be Garbo's co-star. Wanger, bought the film rights to the french novel La Duchesse de Langeais in 1948. He suggested Garbo the idea to turn this 1834 Balzac novel, into a film aftetr they decided
NOT to to a film about GEORGE SAND. Greta liked the idea. Back in 1947, there was already a, La Duchesse de Langeais, film made. This french film version, directed by Jacques de Barobcelli, starred Edwige Feuillere as the tragic Duchess. Garbo had admiration for Edwige. Wanger arranged a private sc
reening of the film in Paris. The film provided Greta with a clear idea of what to do with her part. This may have grabbed her too, to make this film. Garbo could identify with the Duchess.

I just got my heart pricked imagining Garbo in the main role with her imposing presence. What it could have been...pure emotional magic!
La Duchesse de ... ( 1 year ago by garboforever)
La Duchesse de Langelais is a story of romance, revenge, and redemption. It tells the story of the heartless and coquette Antoinette de Navarreins - The Duchesse de Langeais. She moves about in the vapid, pleasure-seeking world of the French aristocracy. Antoinette is unhappily married and successfully separated from her husband, the Duc de Langeais.

I have choosen two scenes "the first meeting and the last meeting of the couple". I am not good in cutting a film ,-)

That is very valuable information. It has shades of Camille withouth the cough. For some reason I imagined whilst viewing the clip Armand played by Gerard Phillip, he would had complimented Grbo well with his handsome features against her gorgeous ones.

I think you can totally see GG and James Mason.For years i treid to get the screenplay.I am sure it is somewhere. you know that Walter Wanger planned a scene with Edith Piaf in the film? She may had sang the ,as we today say, Titeltrack ;-)
The reason i ... ( 1 year ago by garboforever)
The reason i dislike about Wanger was that they too much tried to make a "Camille" like film. all teh suggestions he and his partner had for Garbo were similar to "Camille". I truyl would have seen her in something more modern.
However, she left us with a great career ,-)
The possibilities ... ( 1 year ago by 1928javier)
The possibilities are immense, but I believe they tried to coax Garbo back to the old mystique she was known for, without taking in consideration she needed to move forward to a more down to earth role. However I agree with your comments.
Garboforever and ... ( 1 year ago by LoneConformist)
Garboforever and fans, I'm sure you know that this story was remade this year by Jacques Rivette as "Ne Touchez Pas La Hache," with Jeanne Balibar and Guillaume Depardieu.
There's no cause for regret as this adaptation will surely be magnificent. Depardieu is born for the role of Montriveau. But imagine him playing against an aging, wounded Garbo instead of the slightly too closed-off Balibar... Reason enough to make a time machine!
I believe that ... ( 1 year ago by DavidGarbo)
I believe that Garbo wanted to be acting as religious or being a nun like never married! She wanted it so badly!
