- Beverly Hills Public Relations executive Edward Lozzi interviewed Greta Garbo twice in the early 1980's for CNN on one of her trips to his city. The movie Garbo Talks had just been released with Anne Bancroft. Garbo, still active in her 80's was again top news (reluctantly) at this time.

She always said that she never said she wants to be alone, she said she wanted to be LEFT alone, there is a difference.
Ran into her in NYC in 1981. Zaxman's Drug Store. She was wearing an overcoat with a little white dog sticking its head out of the pocket. I was startled and blurted out, "Is that really you"?? She looks at me deadpan and says "Of course it is darling". I'll never forget it.
George 😮 wow!
George I love that story. That is beautiful!! What a thing to have happened. You're so lucky.
What a wonderful story!
sure it wasn't eva gabor!
OMG I would of fainted. What a cool story! :-)
Greta Garbo was one of the greatest actors who ever lived and what a beautiful lady
actrices. Why use the male form. I think that is so degrading to all actrices. Bette Davis, Barbara Stanwyck, Marlene Dietrich, etc, they all called themselves actrices. And very proud doing so. So please stop with using the male form. Beeing an actrice is great as well.
There will never be another like her. That’s said about a lot of old stars but with her it’s true. For one, there’s no true movie stars anymore. Two, celebs now no longer have that mystique and mystery that was so fascinating.
She loved watching MTV?????? LOL "I Vant My MTV"....
GINGERALER, that's a good one!!
It's not I want to be alone. It's, I want to be left alone.
Incorrect, she actually said I want to be let alone. Research the evidence.
@@peterney2402 🙄
@@peterney2402 Let alone, left alone..
There’s not much difference!
She was a depressive.and a recluse. That’s what she wanted, that’s what she got.
Yes you wanted be left alone in this moment
People always repeat this, but it’s not precisely true that she never said it. She gives the line “I want to be alone” in the film “Grand Hotel,” her biggest box office hit. “I want to be let alone” is something Greta expressed in her private life, per an interview she gave to Life Magazine in the 1950s. But the famous line “I want to be alone” comes from a movie and has been parodied since the early 30s.
"The Swedish Sphinx" is the most apt demonym to describe Garbo in her later years. I've ALWAYS been utterly fascinated by her myself. I've seen ALL of her films, and she was a PURE force of nature onscreen. A more BRILLIANT actress didn't exist at the time. She was TRULY unique. There will NEVER be anyone like her again.
Garbo never got tired of being Garbo. She was very protective of her image and the name Garbo and her family carries on with her wishes. And Garbo never gave interviews. Strange.
It's not strange. It's fabulous. Stars allow too many interviews these days and it kills the mystery and magic. She intrinsically understood the power of silence. If you want to be famous, give interviews. But if you want to become iconic, shut the F up!
@@stmichl9433 What I meant by it was strange was the fact this idiot here said he interviewed her. He's a lying pos and I'm lmao that people believe him.
She was very astute. She knew she had already reached legendary icon status. She didn’t have to work anymore bc of the status she reached. Bc of that, everyone from politicians, royalty, famous actors, and famous musicians all wanted to be around the divine Garbo even though she had stopped working. Not many celebrities can maintain their relevancy as she did without doing anything. There was no one else like her and never will be. By being so secretive, it only made her that much more famous. Of course she never got tired of being Garbo. Otherwise she wouldn’t have an issue with people calling her Greta. She wanted to be known as Garbo like the famous theatre actresses before her time who were known by only one name. I love Garbo if you can’t tell by my screen name.
It’s strange because this guy is lying through his teeth.
"I spoke to her at her girlfriend's house." A loaded sentence. His stupid question of why she left since she had so much financial success. Money really isn't everything. It isn't anything.
mckavitt wasn’t it. I mean he practically put her business out in the street.😂
Back then we would commonly say girlfriend to refer to a platonic friend.
Being so famous, for so long, she wanted privacy, complete privacy, so, she became a recluse...Johnny Carson & JD Salinger became reclusive, too, and, to a lesser degree, so did Jacqueline Kennedy-Onassis, who, never gave interviews.
She had 8 different romances and had millions of adoring fans, yet she felt lonely. It shows that there's a difference between being lonely and being alone. She wanted to be alone but didn't want to be lonely
She never said she wanted to be alone, she wanted to be left alone, there is a difference.
@@ingeabrahamsen4684 - I met a family in Paris who had lived in the same building. They said she knocked on their door and said,they looked like such a happy family, could she see them a occasionally.
She never said she wanted to be alone. I’m tired of correcting this.
I was neighbors with Gene Tierney when I was a kid. She was beautiful. She used to have me and my sister over and give us peppermint candies. I had no clue who she was. To us she was Ms. Tierney nextdoor. Now that I am older I kick myself in the butt to not have known back then. Even my Mom knew who she was but they never told us perhaps so we wouldn't bother her.
Frank Gzz America's Boyfriend ooooooh! Damn! Lucky you!
Wow, so neat!
Frank Gonzalez Official were your parents in the film business? Is that how you lived next door to a famous movie star?
That is so neat! Wonderful story...
NIce going, Frank. Read We WIll Aways Live In Beverly Hills. Try ebay.
“At her girlfriend’s house.” Righto. Spot on.
Just reading your comment, makes it so very clear, why she wanted to be left alone...
@@ingeabrahamsen4684correct. A “girlfriend” at 80, just means her female friend who is a platonic friend. People are vulgar and stupid
Laughable; he never spoke to her. She was incredibly guarded about her privacy, and, talking to someone like him would have been the very last thing she'd have done. Anyone in her small circle of family and friends who did make the mistake of speaking to the press were cut off & shut out ASAP.
Exactly right.
How do you know? You don't know.And what do you mean by saying "someone like him!"? WTF.
@@gingerlord4983 Obviously you need to do some homework; she did not give interviews, period - let alone to tabloid TV 'journalists'. Did not happen.
Thanks for posting!
Aloha from Hawaii!
People published so much shit on Garbo during her lifetime.
Clickbait title.
His expression is like “I know I’m full of sh!t but let’s see if I can pull this off” lol
What is Willy Whistle doing in the background when this guy is trying to talk?
garbo gorgeous graceful. biggest legend ever
Greta was a part of my family.
Must be 18 September 1985
La divina, la Esfinge, para mí el rostro más bello del cine.
kiitos. " the clock is not on our side today "
Another amazing interview by Beverly Hills Public Relations Pro Ed Lozzi!
Lozzi is a fabricating everything he says about GG. He Never had a telephone conversation with her. I knew her in Klosters. Walked with her every day she was there. I also knew Salka Viertel quite well. Salka told me that GG liked and trusted me because I was "independent ". I can assure you GG NEVER talked to him!
@@wendyzollinger9183 I belive you. You sound like a person with integrity, and the fact that Garbo trustet you does you honor.
Actress Rekha from Bollywood has the same persona. Mysterious life since ages.
If this guy is really telling the truth, chances are she never spoke to him again. That said, I'd like to think she watched MTV back in the day, when it was good, and they actually played music videos.
Poor Garbo, he clames to have met her three times - and now he want's to write a book about her... profitting on her name.
No wonder she want's to be left alone.
He's making it up as he goes along, he never interviewed her.
Total clickbait. There is no Garbo here.
Amazing
Gracias por subtitularlo en castellano.
It opens with Bill Tush, which I thought was a prank name. But I looked it up... it's real.
How could garbo be tired of being 'garbo'. She was such a beautiful talent.
xxcharmed1xx She was Garbo. Notability extremely private. Female centered. NEVER fell victim to the Hollywood façade of the lavender weddings. She remained her own woman.
Garbo was a I don't know how to say it, but she isn't Garbo, she's Gustafson, and she was Garbo from 1924 - 1941, not anymore, she isn't Garbo anymore, she was amazing and remains one of the most fascinating stars.
@@ahyan6681 You hit the nail on the head with that comment. Exactly right 👍
She was tired of being famous as many famous people are (it is really hard losing your anonymity and being bothered all the time, especially as an introvert which I think she was).
Her line, heard in "Grand Hotel", was "I want to be LET alone." The narrator needs to get her facts straight.
Joseph Carl Breil no it really is “I want to be alone”. It’s here on UA-cam.
No. She does say it in the movie. But in real life she had said I want to be let alone.
@@arrlocro1786it’s only in the movie that her character says that, she never said that in real life. YOU need to get YOUR facts straight.
She said, I want to be left alone.
The title of this video is EXCEEDINGLY deceptive. Not technically mendacious...but deceptive. This is merely an interview with an individual who claimed to have interviewed Garbo on various occasions.
OMG I just died she watch MTV I love it!!
sorry but where the hells the interview?
She was never really in seclusion. She just wanted to choose who she hung out with. Back then movie studios were like dictators and these actors lives maybe they still are.
Garbo & Elfriede Datzig one of the Best Aloha from Hawaii
This clip is from "Camille".
That was very interesting 🤔.
Where is the interview?
He reminds me a great deal of a fellow in a movie called Nacho Libre.
Where's the interview???
+Renee Bloggs I bet this didn't even happen.
Sue K j
Moostang K it did not.
well - we should have known
before
good question!
REALLY?? Seems to me YOU don't have YOUR facts! She said exactly those words in Grand Hotel!
Well he had the yoga and cigarettes right
Carol Buckland doesn't have her facts. Garbo never said 'I want to be alone' - not in a movie and not in real life. She said 'I want to be LET alone' - which is different.
Matthew Campling Finally.. a true Garbo Historian. Those were her words.
she did said that in a movie, GRAND HOTEL, just saw it
Guido Bossi she said that in Grand Hotel in jest because she was misquoted so often.
Matt C correct. It was "let" not "left" and not "I want to be alone." Essentially she was sick of people following her and harassing her. The closest to that was Princess Diana, that level of fame except Diana courted her fame whereas Garbo didn't seek out reporters or tease the media she literally stayed away . Garbo is unique amongst famous people. There is and will never be anyone like her.
'I tank I go back to sveden'
Jag vill tillbaka till Sverige.
EXACTLY!
I would have rather seen Mr. Lozzi, interview Greta; rather than talking to another Journalist! Him talking on T.V. and him looking down at notes; is very suspicious!🙄
THERE WOULD NEVER BE ANOTHER GARBO!!!
Wheres Garbo??
"Gods? Godesses?"
Something tells me had he referred to Greta as a godess during that interview, it wouldn't have lasted long. It would have reminded her- and him- as to why she had reached her limits in that industry as early as she did.
Some people navigate their postion as popular actors quite well. They adjust to the adoration, yet also strike a balance between that and have well ground themselves in the reality of who they really are. Others get sucked up into it and feed off that overglorified adulation. Once the applause stops, it's 2 pills away from them wanting to jump off a tall building. Greta wanted her space. She understood and accepted the glory. She knew she was good. But she needed her space. It's as simple as that. She never said "I want to be alone". But rather, "I want to be let alone. There is a difference". Yes, there is. All the intense paparazzi and rumors about who she was, who she was with got on her nerves. Her glamerous lifestyle here in the states did not live up to her fond memories back in Sweden. So, in being consistent and true to her identity, she STAYED true to herself and showed us all, "You can paint a picture of me anyway you want, but you are not changing me".
All the privileges and fortune she got also afforded her the opportunity to walk away from it all. And when "2 Faced Women" flopped, she saw that as an opportunity to say "See this? I ain't all that", and left.
I applaud her for that.
Aloha
Deceitful ! It was not an interview!!!
There’s nobody to share.....sort of understand
He's lying his ass off. Period.
Dubious claims.
She preferred women, correct? I thought that might have been why she left Hollywood. She got sick of all the “arranged relationships” - of course, I wasn’t around and am only basing this off claims in different articles.
She did, she had multiple relationships with women! Mimi Pollak, Mercedes de Acosta, Cecilé de Rothschild and others!
Greta garbo in studio 54 very cool and bizarre . 2019.
Gino Genaro did she go to studio 54?
This is a lot of crap. "Darling" - my foot! And I never heard of a dog. Garbo did have ONE journalist that she trusted and really and truly spoke to in her later years, and that was the Swedish Sven Broman - he has written a very interesting book about her and to my knowledge he was the only one she confided in. She complained to him about journalists who pretended to have spoken to her but had never met her! When one reads his book (one can get it in english too) one feels that THIS is the real Garbo. I haven't read it in English, only Swedish though. Here one can listen to a recording of her speaking to him on the telephone. She is truly hilarious I can tell you!
ua-cam.com/video/2h8LDo538Vk/v-deo.html
I agree with you. This is a false story. This person dosen't even have a clue of how Garbo was as a person.
Instead he makes up a story, with a stereotype image of an elderly, eccentric diva (with a small dog under her arm) adressing everyone as "darling".
Also, it would be completly out of character for her to even answer, and to give up her anonymity like this.
That you tube video you say has been deleted. Like everything rare or controversial you tube delete it
UTUBE SMILE BY JOHN BAVAS
Her line is, i want to b left alone.
I want to be LET alone.

This Lozzi guy is such a liar. And not a good one because he has to read notes. But it's true she smoked cigarettes to the end.
It's kind of disgusting to say that there were 8 men in her life and that's why it makes no sense for her to be lonely....lol
What does that have to do with being lonely. And relations or keeping company with people is just that And none of anyone's business but in Hollywood everything is everyone's business and I believe that's why she got out of showbiz, nosey, pretending, image of Hollywood😒
This guy was totally making this up. Any Garbo enthusiast knows this bc since her death, thru close friends and family who spoke about her, there have come about several well researched bios that contain a lot of info on what she was about. And all agree she would never have given an interview, esp like this. Also, she didn't leave Hollywood. WW2 became a problem bc profits from her movies came mostly from Europe. She tore up her contract with MGM and didn't take contractual money owed to her at that time bc she was fair and honest. Her plan was to come back after the war. But she was stabbed in the back. Her contract was never picked back up after the war. Friends knew never to ask her why she quit the movies. She told them never to ask her. I would imagine she was deeply hurt by how Hollywood discarded her. Granted, newer people had taken over production by then, but what a loss that no one took the opportunity to find roles for her. But that was Hollywood. They threw out a lot of great female talent once they reached a certain age. But Garbo had made a fortune and invested her money well. So unlike Crawford, Davis, Swanson and Deitrich she gave the middle finger salute and gave up on what she did best. If only someone could produce her true story in the right way, but hell, who could play Garbo and get it right? NO ONE!
@@songbirdy
I'm glad you said that, because I always remembered how everyone said she was a recluse so it seemed totally fabricated that Garbo would let this guy interview her, not to mention talk about her personal life with men!! Also it was well known that her most closet intimate relationships were with women, not men....! This guy is a fraud!
Thank u for the extra info!
I'm so sorry The Two faced Woman was a flop. I love that film and have seen it several times. Once in Paris I went to see it with a friend in an afternoon showing and we sat through it twice, delighted. Why did she stop? In Hollywood the girl next door type was becoming more popular and I think Two-Faced-Woman was an attempt to push her somewhat in that direction .As the twin sister of the rather severe skiing teacher she was able to bring back the Garbo allure. Ortson Welles talked about the great stars he most admired and the first name he mentions is that of Garbo. He says that era of great stars is over and we are now in the era of pop music. - to my distress. Grand Hotel was perhaps the greatest movie in whch she appeared. The other films were somewhat kitsch saved by her appearance in them The philosopher Adorno - my beloved Master - wrote in a letter that he had seen Anna Karenina with Garbo and that the film was dreadful. I thought, "Silly man, you don't go to a film like that to see Tolstoy but Garbo's symphony of movements and gestures and facial expressions.Of course I realise that the cinema , apart from the actors, had to move in a modern but not so commercial direction. Garbo in her early days did appear in Germany in an Expressionist film called Joyless Street and she was wonderfully expressive in it.
Your words and knowledge of the Garbo mystic is terrific.
@@lozzassoc -Thank-you Edward, I write not for myself but for the artists I love. I want them to be seen
Two Faced Woman was a DELIGHTFUL comedic romp, it's sad it was a flop.
Still no interview lol...only hearsay.
I thought this was Garbo from the Jonas Bros
Ce Lozzi ment comme il respire. C'est pathétique.
What interview? LOL Eight Men in her life? Cameramen.
Why should we believe this guy?
I don’t believe a word that comes out of his mouth. Not at all. He reminds me of those people who have a chance semi-encounter with a celebrity and then spouts details as if they’re bosom buddies. Liar.
Lies.
Never heard such crap in my life
Oh, there's plenty better crap out there.
Hallo
She was in swiss, photo are stranges,. In my environmental Management, in film, tv, music, design, abuse, nordich film, icebear Companys logo actor Ebbe Rode, brother,
Doctore,. Are not good, and methode to false, and dataspi, massive, problems royldty, hackers,.
Could that be her,
PURE CRAP AT ALL.
She was a horrible woman from what I've read. She cheated on lovers and barred her staff from her funeral.
You didn't know her on a personal level to be jumping to harsh judgments. Also, infidelity doesn't inherently make the individual a bad person.
Marllon
You're still interested in her. Which is why you're here. And you didn't know her either. I read about her... That's how I formed my opinion.
Readily believing information without firsthand observation is a telltale sign of sheep thought. Maybe try thinking like an individual.
Marllon
... that means you, yourself can never read anything written by another person, because that would mean compromising your ability to think like an individual. Why should you believe anything you read?
The information I gathered was by her biographer, who knows her better than you or I.
In that case, I apologize. I was ignorant.
I can't believe that, CNN, MTV??? yoga? I don't know if I can even believe him!
