Episode 2: Garbo Quits!

The story of my life is about back entrances, side doors, secret elevators and other ways of getting in and out of places so that people won't bother me. In the 1920s and 30s, Garbo was as big as they get. She only made 28 movies (for contrast, Joan Crawford starred in 81), but the impact she left on pop culture shows no signs of going away. In episode 2 of She Paid the Bills, we look at her upbringing in Stockholm, the men who influenced her, and why being called box office poison lead to one of the best performances of her career - only to become her final success. Don’t forget to subscribe to be the first to hear all about grand dame Joan Crawford - next time.
