Queen Christina Movie Review
Cast & Crew
Director : Rouben Mamoulian
Producer : Walter Wanger
Screenwriter : H.M. Harwood, Salka Viertel,
Starring : Greta Garbo, John Gilbert, Ian Keith, Lewis Stone, Elizabeth Young,
Widely (and strangely) considered one of Garbo's best films, Queen Christina is a loosely historical romance about a Scandinavian woman who becomes queen at age five. As an adult (as Garbo), Christina becomes jaded with ruling the country and escapes to the countryside in the guise of a man (which Garbo achieves by wearing a hat and lowering her voice). The funniest moment comes when a disguised Garbo is given a coin... with her face on it. Ha! Unfortunately, once the film turns into a romance, the movie degenerates into a snoozy Catholic vs. Protestant melodrama as Christina is wooed by a Spanish noble.
