garbo had 2

to be fair only so much can be written in a true biographic manner about garbo-she retired from acting at age of 36, never married, had no children and became a recluse. during her career she clashed with the studios because she actively avoided any attempts at publicity refusing interviews for the entirety of her life.

Well that's a good thing.... because the most quoted silver screen movie line on 2025 TV is.."Get busy living "

as in 'get busy living or get busy dying? from 1994's shawshank redemption?

Very good...very good... hope is a good thing..the best of things and no good thing ever dies...so that is why Morgan Freeman is pitching hope...at least on my antenna tv to the 1975 Paul Simon song about folks who live around me. Maybe you and I can open up a can of worms about the top five movies.... because the dead critics still think that citizen Kane and Casablanca are the best and the critics that are dying have space oddessy... AND us.... well that's a can of worms

if you are interested in Matt Groening and more spec. the simpsons I would highly recommend the series 'icons unearthed:the simpsons'. fascinating and well done complete overview of the simpsons' from inception to current day. every aspect of creation, production (extensive detail on all aspects), casting, impact on the animation and television industry...

'icons unearthed' is a spectacular series (the season dedicated to the lord of the rings films is amazing).

CBS with Jane Pauly did a segment this morning

Seriously? Like her or not, she's a Hollywood icon. Why do you think a documentary about her is superfluous?

The Springsteen movie is not a biopic about him; it's about a very specific couple of years in his life. I didn't find it very compelling, though I love Nebraska. It wasn't very cohesive, and I didn't find White very convincing.
