These podcasts are destroying the trust people have in ANYTHING, now in 2024. We all have a good and bad side, but balanced, to make it work without causing pain all around us. This was not Ingrid Bergman’ s way. Now, unfortunately, I have no desire to see her films anymore.
Why was she judged so harshly. The same was dealt out to Grace Kelly. Leading male stars were celebrated for their affairs. She was brilliance at work. Dedicated to her vocation. Her legacy will never fade. 💗📽️🇦🇺
@@brogsbunny None of us knew her. Why sit in judgment of a person you never knew. She was a brilliant actress. That would never be up for debate. What a person does in the choices they make are theirs and has nothing to do any of us.
I AM FROM SWEDEN AND I LOVE HER AS AN ACTRESS !❤ I DON'T CARE ABOUT HER PRIVATE LIFE. DO NOT WRITE BAD COMMENTS ABOUT HER IF YOU DID NOT KNEW HER !!!! RIP INGRID ❤
The way she treated her first daughter showed that she had no morals or goodness in her. Sad that she wasn't alone, it seems all actors have a problem with morals. Maybe its the fact they don't and aren't real people. All your yelling notwithstanding.
I've known narcissistic people who are not actors who dismiss their children and do bad things. Unfortunately, it is true of all humankind. We just see it more because celebrities are in the spotlight and everyone else flies under the radar.
All kudo's to Miss Bergman, excellent actress, lived life on her terms in a 'man's' dog eat dog world. She did suffer, she was black-balled for a time and she did pay her dues. Her acting skills, charm and incredible beauty are Steller. She will never be outclassed! A down to earth DIVA in the Highest Sense. Her intense final scene in Gaslight can never be equalled. Thank you Miss Bergman, you were and are loved, admired and immortal!
Divas are notorious for being demanding and difficult to appease-I would say that she was determined to live her life as she saw fit. Unless you were a relative or long-time very close friend, we can only infer what her life was like.
My husband’s aunt was Roberto Rossellini’s first wife, Marcella de Marchis Rossellini. After their divorce, Rossellini married Bergman but kept a close and friendly relationship with his ex-wife, with whom he had two children. Bergman’s children spent a lot of time with their half siblings under the care of my husband’s aunt. She apparently loved those kids as her own. Ingrid was not the motherly kind but her children were brought up in a loving environment. There are tons of stories about Isabella, Renzo, Romano, my husband and his sisters, a big extended Italian family.
@@MaryamBraisby-hn9lo trust me, this is the truth, as recounted by my husband, as a child in Italy, his siblings and cousins. Bergman’s children were not abandoned, had a happy upbringing and childhood. I am really upset at the double standard: Millions of children live with their mothers and are not deemed abandoned by their fathers. In this case, the couple decided their kids would have a more stable and structured future if they remained with their father. Rossellini was a true family man. Isabella gave an interview a few years ago in which she recalled that, when her father died, many family members had to look for jobs. He employed and supported them a lot. Bergman was a great woman and should not be talked down.
@@BlackStump172I agree, and I personally think the effect a voice has on a persons attraction and appeal is sadly underrated. Especially nowadays, when women seem to have forgotten that it's not just about big breasts and puffy lips. Just think about how the voice of women like Garbo, Monroe, Bacall, Swanson and Ann-Margrets seductive voices added to their personality. Unfortunately I don't think Ingrid Bergmans voice was as pleasent, as she grew older. And her daughter Isabella has almost an identical voice.
@@ingeabrahamsen4684 maybe? it had to do with her smoking? that can alter a person' voice. she didn't take care of her health but so many didn't and smoking was in fact encouraged in those days......
Yes smoking could well have something to do with it. But I have another theory as well. I think women of her generation, when they went into menopause was offered hormones. Which also kept them looking more youthful. It however deepened their voices as well. What wasen't known (until later) was that it was also causing breastcancer. And I could imagine that women in the filmindustri then, were more inclined to use hormones. Have you heard the voice of Lucille Ball?
Actors are actors. We see them on the screen or stage. We never see who they really are. I don’t care what they do in private. The private should stay private. I don’t condone sexual assault. If that is the case, like regular people, they should go to jail. Mask On Nurse Marty (Ret)
I recently saw a documentary on Ingrid Bergman - she was first married to a man and had a daughter by him, left her husband and her daughter with him - because he insisted on that. 2nd marriage to Rosellini (sp?) had 3 children by him and when they divorced left to marry husband #3, she left her children with Rosellini. If that is true -- different from my first feeling that her first child was kept from her; but the next 3 children, seems not to be the case. Seems like she was not a very caring mother but a great actress. Also, to a degree I don't care if actors and actresses have affairs, but I care how they treated their children (Bing Crosby - 2 of his boys committed suicide, alleged brutal treatment from their father as children) Barbara Stanwyck adopted one son, and when her marriage did not work out, she totally ignored him and tried to give him back to an agency. He was devastated. She never saw him or spoke to him again; and when she died, left him nothing. Liz Taylor stole her best friend's husband (Debbie Reynolds and Eddie Fisher had at least 2 children; his reputation went down; her rep went up - she could get any man she wanted) Then she met Richard Burton, she dumped Fisher and Burton left his wife and 3 children. Both Burton and Taylor ended up being alcoholics and Taylor, addicted to drugs). When anyone is so unfeelingful or brutal towards their children - yuck!
Yes! It's the children that matter. I don't care how good you are at whatever you do as a profession. Yes ok your good but when you decide to make your children pay, I can't respect you as a person as "great." You know what is great? Parents who take their real life role as a parent seriously. Some europeans are too easily impressed by shallow popular distractions.
I understood that it was Rosellini who kept the children in Italy against her wishes. She was caring for her daughter Isabella full time when she was confined to a cast to cure her back curvature problem.
Ingrid Bergman was a great actress, one of the best and most beautiful of all time. I don't give a damn about her private life. I do not sit in judgment of that part of her. My opinion is based solely on the beauty of her art. What a gifted talent she was. And I can never forget her enchanting voice. She and Roberto Rossellini were La Dolce Vita.
When you see her in these black and white close ups you can see that she's beautiful, but in color she would take your breath away. And that voice, don't forget that.
The Irish and the Scottish would take point with what you've just said! It's kind of like lumping all the black cloak from the Caribbean into the African-Americans populating the US. Not really a shred of similarity other than perhaps the color of the skin and maybe a few other traits.@@tiredlawdog
@@cookshackcuisinistaI found they both speak different dialects of Gaelic. I was told they can understand each other. I know their religions differ, at least in the years past. And lets not forget they both make fine whiskey.
Loved her so much. My all time favorite actor. She was brilliant. Seeing and hearing her daughter, Isabella Rossalini, was like having a small part of her back.
FWIW, Miss Bergman had one of the best quotes when she released her own autobiography,' [My exes] can tell their own stories but this is MY story!' And, in fact, 'My Story' was the title she used for it!
She isn't here to refute anything, and reasons for behaviors aren't known. Women's "liberation" hadn't come about, so there is that fact, too. Her children seem to love her and love her. I so admired her talent, her looks and her manner. RIP
Do you really believe women are liberated? You aren't an enlightened person if you believe that crap. They just took away our rights to our bodies in 2024.
Ugh, 😮 I only knew about her affair with Roberto Rosallini. Yikes, can never understand what drives a person to be so self absorbed and manipulative. I know her daughter Pia Lindstrom was a very well known and respected news broadcaster in NYC but what happened to her other children?
Yes, and a very many of these male actors were also violent drunks, abusers and notorious adulterers! Once upon a tiime 'fixers' got paid a ton of money to hide or somehow neutralize the threat to the idol-ized fake images created by hollywood.
Very true. I do not agree with adultery however, I really hate the double standard, when it comes to how they treated her as a woman with her affairs as opposed to men. When men have affairs, it’s treated as par for the course. This sexist, unfair double standard still exists today.
@@msladybugbubbles Could it be you really think charles had sex with or 'loved' only one other woman? Knowing the notoriety of so called 'royalty' that's a farce! Wakey Wakey. Read all about it. Sorry to burst your bubble. Remember, Diana was an innocent naive young girl! She thought she had her prince charming and got knifed in the back by both her husband and camilla, the queen manipulator/moma who actually slept her way to the top. Now, that's premeditated evil!
NOT just men, going all the way back to the era of silent films actors and ACTRESSES jumped from bed to bed. Hollyweird is a cesspool where decency and morals doesn't exist, booze, drugs and sex is common place.
Men, even handsome men, had to work very hard to get a woman to have sex. But a woman, a pretty woman, can get most men to have sex with her. Those are the big differences. Ergo, promiscuous women are seen as worse than men, morally.
Ms Bergman was one of the greatest actresses, beautiful and graceful. Her problems stemmed from lesser lights jealosy and envy. Now, RIP sweet lady, forever missed.
@@BrendaKDavis-cz7fc Oh yes...Her break with Hollywood over the possessive claims of the media on her,, when she teamed up with Rossellini - she was branded as "living in sin" and a traitor to America, which seems ridiculous now - both the personal and artistic partnership with Rosselllini and the move to Italy took a lot of courage, and showed her independent mindset. It took several years for Hollywood to reconnect with her. When she was about to travel back to do "Anastasia", her comeback film in the US, she recalls in her memoir how Ernest Hemingway came up to see her at her hotel. She knew him from the 1940s, and she was one of his "elective daughters". In a very moving scene in the memoir, she recalls how he told her, at the hotel, that he would follow her to New York and protect her if the journalists were difficult when she met them there - she knew it would be a busy occasion and that she would land in the news. She amicably declined: "That's very kind, Ernest, but I'll have to face them on my own... or they won't take *my* answers for good".. She was right, of course (and the return to New York went without major trouble). 💗
Obviously, Ingrid was such a natural beauty, men couldn't keep their hands off of her! There's a price to be paid for fame and fortune! She said herself, the public confused her with the nun she played! Even beautiful, very talented 'good girls' have affairs! Her children whom she remained close to over the latter years were close to her and have publicly spoken of their love for her, understanding her need to be a great actress! Nobody is perfect! "To err is human, to forgive divine"! Unfortunately, she had a major nicotene addiction i.e. smoking cigarettes which we now know can cause breast and lung cancer as well as other cancers! Her co-star the late great Yul Brynner was also a nicotene addict along with the late greats Rosalind Russell, Audrey Hepburn and Jackie Kennedy Onassis, chain smokers who all died in their 60s from cancers! Yul did a commercial for the American Lung Assoc begging people not to smoke! His addiction was so bad there's even a video on UA-cam of him smoking while waterskiing! smdh
@@JustMe-uu3bh Both Jackie Kennedy and Audrey Hepburn suffered miscarriages and still born births , one each because of their smoking, and Patrick Kennedy died from a premature lung disease like my nephew did who also died a few days after birth because my sister in law had smoked while pregnant! Too bad they didn't know what we know today! smdh
John Wayne suffered the same fate from smoking. His last wife said that he was a major chain smoker, lighting a new Cigarette off the last one before it went out. I'm surprised he didn't have a stroke first. Smoking suffocates the brain from oxygen. Thank God I never had the desire to smoke, I wont even stand next to people that are smoking. I make up an excuse to leave.
You have to love it when a famous person dies. People come out from the floor boards to say they slept with them. She was a great actor. I don't care who she slept with. She's a nun compared to some of the actors for the last several years.
There just humans like anyone else, the difference being their art is portrayal of different personalities, they are so good you believe straight away its them and mostly its not. A stunningly beautiful woman with a rich movie legacy. Always be remembered.
I have to wonder how much to believe of the comments by her first husband. I saw an interview with Ingrid's adult children where they said they adored her. Pia Lindstrom said this also. That rather than being broken by her being away from them, they were more excited for whenever she was around because they just "wanted more of her" as she was so delightful to have around. I have always been fond of her and her movies. I have no doubt she was a driven personality in her career and had her faults. Her acting was not one of them. I think it is hard for actors not to fall in love with the people they are in films with. Kudos to those who can resist it. I was curious the video did not mention her latter film with Liv Ullmann "Autumn Sonata" or her role as Gold Meira. At that time she was not so glamorous but still very handsome; they were also great roles. I believe she died just shortly after filming her role in "A Woman Called Gold" for television. I believe she hid her cancer from those around her
You are absolutely right. I guess we saw the same interview.. my husband grew up with Isabella and her twin sister, along with Rossellini’s other children. They are cousins. They were normal, happy kids who often saw and visited their mother, enjoyed unforgettable vacation time at Santa Severa and had a very structured life.
I actually saw her in the hairdressers in London shortly after she had returned following completion of the film role of Golda Meir. One of her arms was dreadfully swollen, due to the progress of the cancer, but she was so stoic that she had that arm strung up so the swelling would diminish before filming every day. She was only months from death and wore not a trace of make up but she was still strikingly lovely. Years before, as the narration states, she hadn't done any filming for 2 years in order to be with her daughter Isabella while she was treated for a curvature if the spine. She was absolutely unique, loved by her children, and a brilliant actress. I hate the tendency to throw vile comments at people now dead who achieved so much in their lives and I will always remember her as a brilliant actress.
A mother doesn't have to feel-feel feel-feeeeel all the time for her offspring. The children on the other hand don't want to be "mothered" all the time.
Well, that's hardly likely to happen if the mother ABANDONS you. Mothers don't have to feeel all the time, true. But you have to take care of them and do what's best for them. They didn't ask to be here. @ulrikjensen6841
I don’t agree. My children always came first - all four of them. I am always surprised when a mother doesn’t feel the same way. But we are all brought up differently and have very different opinions about everything so to each his own.
@@ulrikjensen6841 Leaving the children and going off to another country to love with another man - not exactly a doting mother. She didn't raise any of her children - her choice.
Reading all the comments, is proof of how much love, respect and admiration there is for her. RIP You were something to behold, and are still admired so much today.
I don’t think Ingrid’s first husband’s book was petty revenge, nothing petty about it. It was about the truth as he saw it, and considering how she treated him and her first child, I’m not surprised.
I don’t know why people expect beautiful actresses to live like nuns. These are human beings, flesh and blood, and subject to the same drives and desires that possess everyone. The only difference is they have much more opportunity because of their financial resources and fame.
Ingrid Bergman was incredibly beautiful without a trace of make up on her face and, as stated, her husband controlled all the money she earned and invested it so that she did not have the fur coats and jewels of so many other female stars. She worked on film after film, was incredibly talented, and like many many other stars of the time had affairs with leading men who adored her. She was far from the only one. I deeply dislike this kind of muck raking of a dead woman, long after her death.
You didn't say anything about her last performance, "A Woman Called Golda." It was outstanding. She won an Emmy for it, but did not live to receive it.
I first saw Ingrid Bergman with Leslie Howard in Intermezzo. Loved the movie, loved her and adored Leslie Howard. Apparently my mother did too, she named me Leslie after him. When I was under 6 and walking in the street with my older cousin in the Bronx, a man looked and said and what's your name? I said, Leslie, he replied that's a boy's name. I stamped my foot, saying I am girl. Actually, it wasn't till years later I came across a girl who was named Leslie - Leslie Caron, the French actress. I sure loved Leslie Howard though, thinking when I saw "Gone With The Wind" I also was so attracted to Ashley not Rhett Butler. He seemed to be the most loving, wonderful gentleman. When older, learned he also was a man who had many affairs - alas the way of Hollywood for men and women. B/t/w mother's second choice of a name for me was Ashley. Leslie Ashley sounds good.
She and her narcissistic lifestyle fit in perfectly with what other actors and actresses were doing both on and off screen in Hollywood during the Golden Era. She was just more open about it than the others were. If she wasn't a foreign national living in the US, iher affairs would have been kept quiet by the Studios and their fixers.
she wasn't a narcissist - she merely did what Europeans did at that time although not everyone was in the public eye. you marry for status and then have a lover, it was pretty much the thing, so how is that being a "narcissist"? people like to point fingers while doing the same thing themselves. she may have made her mistakes *we all do, but her affairs weren't covered up like in the US, "fixers" did that, even Rock Hudson "had to marry a company secretary" to make it seem he was straight, and lots of others things. she wasn't so different but no one controlled her via contract like they did here. I'm not saying she was "right" but she did live her life as she saw fit but who doesn't?
@JustMe-uu3bh Yes, you're right on 🎯 The studio owners controlled the stars' lives. They made the stars sign a "Morality Clause" along with their contract. The studio heads made 💵 the police go away, same with an untimely 🩺 pregnancy. They forced Lavender marriages to cover 💑 👩❤️👩 homosexuality. Even covered up adulterous affairs, suspected murder, alcoholic and drug addictions and looked the other way when male stars were "involved" with an underage girl because the studio owners were doing the same Damn thing! Warner, Mayer, & Goldwyn look them up, you'll be disgusted with them.
The USA is well known for it's hypocrisy about "out of wedlock" misdemeanors, when everything follywood is crawling with crabs and herpes! Especially the Casting Couch. Most of which is fodder for You Tube.
Why do women have to appear perfect in their personal life? She was a very beautiful and clever actress which is all we need to know. 💚 It was very difficult for women with careers in those days.
Now they can sleep around all the want because progress. If anybody questions this, we'll pretend that men do the same thing, even though in reality it's only a tiny minority of men that are even able to do this, while women of below average attractiveness enjoy a level of social and sexual opportunity that a man would literally have to be wealthy and famous to have. When somebody insists on this point, we'll just blubber about "jealousy," as if this difference doesn't explain the very double standard people like you endlessly complain about in the first place.
Her first husband had a right to his axe grinding, to be sure. Igrid abandoned him and their daughter, apparently never looking back. That said, his tell-all book was published AFTER her death, when she was no longer here to rebut his claims. Two wrongs don't make a right, IMHO.
No, she did not abandon her daughter. Her husband won full custody because of her affair, and he refused to allow her to see their daughter. Ingrid's suffering due to the loss of her child eventually led to her marriage to Rossellini to break down and end in divorce. She was wrong for the affair, but what her first husband did to punish her was cruel and harmed not only Ingrid but their daughter as well.
@@MadgeGreen that was sweet of you to bother to tell us, so many like to jump on the judgement bandwagon and her kids don't resent her and it does seem her husband was cold and self serving or so it seemed, even writing a book AFTER she dies? more $$$$? thank you for what you did, I personally love that you did.
Ingrid Bergman’s mother died when she was very young, she was still very young when her father died. Ingrid then lived with an aunt that she was very close to and her aunt died when she was still young. I believe these losses really effected her, everyone she loved and was close to had died and she lost them perhaps that’s why she struggled to maintain permanent relationships
sounds like Lucille Ball - Father died, mgm died, aunt died - all people she was living with - mother remarried and husband did not want children and Lucille lived with his parents - very cold, restrictive people. She was reunited with mother about age 11.
However Lucille made it her life's goal to reunite her family - when she could finally buy as small house in Hollywood she sent for her family: her brother Fred, her mother, her mgf, and her cousin. Cleo. Took care of mgf and mother till they died.
She is legendary to me for being “when we had great actresses and actors. True artistry indeed. Seldom to never go to theatre - it has been years. I watch from the past. She keeps my heart.
You expressed my views so well. Unforgettable in "Casablanca", "Gaslight" and so many others. In Oklahoma a writer stated that it was an end of an era with so many of the "greats" gone.
You need a burning ambition to make it to the top in Hollywood, this cannot be held against her. Her children in a recent documentary clearly stated they hold no grudge against her, on the contrary. They wished they had had more of her, because she was such fun to be with. She was a very courageous woman with a luminous sort of beauty that inspired love. What her love life was like, is none of our business. Can you define a 'scandalous' affair? She asked Petter for a divorce but he flatly refused (greedy for her money...), so what do you do, stay on in a very unhappy marriage and as you rather vulgarly put it 'get your kicks elsewhere'?
My first wife did the same thing to me. She ditched our son and me to later marry a man sixteen years older than her. So, I guess I know where Peter was coming from. Some things you can forgive, but never forget.
Peter sounds like he needed therapy to help him let go of the bitterness. He didn’t have a problem when she was raking him in the dough! And trashing a dead woman? Real brave.
She abandoned him and her daughter. He told the truth and was polite to wait until after her death. He did not owe her his silence after the pain she caused her child.
...so what she did was ok ?? He's the villain...no wonder woman are having such a hard time getting men nowadays...she's the one that needed therapy, not him...
I worked with Dr. Lindstrom in the 80's. He became a very good neurosurgeon and had the kindest heart. He helped many people when they were down and out. He was quiet and gentle.
I don't care at all what she was like personally, but i absolutely adored her. She was mesmerizing on camera. A very dreamy quality and in ''Intermezzo", "Gaslight" and "Casablanca", no other actress could rival her, imo! Her beauty was matchless. I loved any film she was in. A true Hollywood movie star! Beauty and talent.❤🌹❤️
@@lilolmejusayin8671, society expected women to remain faithful but men could be pigs! I never said I felt that way! You just read it into my earlier comment!
I simply Love Ingrid Berman, not just she is really beautiful, she is one of the most greatest actress I've ever watch. I wish I can watch her old movies, now I'm retired at 83 years old.
One of the most beautiful woman ... ever! As for Lindström, he was nothing but a creep. He dishes the dirt after her death when she was not there to defend herself. It is sheer hypocrisy to condemn Bergman for most of what she did. Male Hollywood stars did the same or worse without all the tut-tutting. She did not abandon her daughter Pia. Lindström fought for custody through the courts. Bergman lost.
These men she had affairs with were married too. How come they didn't suffer the wrath of an indignant public? Because she was a mother and mothers are supposed to be saints? TBH, I don't think her children think ill of her. I think she tried to do the best she could, because though it's true that actors and actresses most times put their careers before their children, that is also true of many other professions. She also lived at a time when it was expected for people to have children after marriage, regardless of whether it was a good thing or not. Katherine Hepburn's decision not to have children was not a very common one.
According to what my husband recalls, and he lived with Bergman’s children in Italy, they were happy and loved their mother, although living with their father. Women were so repressed in those days, it’s hard to imagine how much she suffered just trying to have a life of her own.
@@LJ-ht4zs indeed they lived in Italy and had their children there. Even Italy, the epitome of Catholic culture, had nothing bad to say about their relationship. The US has always been one of the most prude and sanctimonious countries on earth.
@@Factinate I truly appreciate that! 🙏🏻I can't stand the robot voices with their mangled grammar and laughable pronunciations. You can just tell when there's a real , intelligent human telling the story. Up with humans 😎👍
Ingrid Bergman was only judged and ”disgraced” in the US and Hollywood. Her career continued as usual in Europe. I’m from Sweden and here she has always been considered as one of our greatest actresses, and no one has cared about her personal life, beacause, what on earth has that got to do with anything?
Beautiful and talented, but oh my goodness what a tangled personal life. A fascinating combination of an actress whose work you admire and a human whose behaviour you personally heavily disapprove of.... I'm a 'left behind' parent, it's no fun and no laughing matter but fabulous video none the less.
I would have been devastated if my mother left me - and I wouldn't care how brilliant she was as an actress or how much money she made. Also in her 2nd marriage, the Italian Director Roberto Rosellini also had done well financially - when Ingrid left him he had four children - 2 by Ingrid and 2 his 1st wife, whom he left for Ingrid. However I read that all of the four children were close and apparently he and Ingrid were close to the 1st wife. I guess in Italy things are more open and more forgiving.
It always amazes me that people want to know about the private lives of others. Ingrid was a beautiful person. Her private life was her affair. None of us are angels. We all have a pass, good or bad .
She's okay. She and her mother reconciled decades ago. Life Magazine did a feature article on their reunion when Pia was a young woman and visited Ingrid. She is friends now with her sisters and brother. All is well. No more "poor Pia" in HER mind. She loved her mother and eventually forgave and became friends as adults.
When I first heard decades ago that she had walked away from her children (without the full story behind it) my first thought was "Good on you, girl". It was such a refreshing take on any woman's life. I know it must have caused pain to each child as she moved on, but if she ensured they were financially well supported by her and their fathers, they probably managed a good life. No-one will cast much of a shadow over her in my eyes. I'd like to hear what those children could tell us. She lost her parents too early which must have affected her.
They actually loved her, including Pia, whose father went to court to make sure that Pia’s mom, Ingrid Bergman, would be barred to see her daughter. But he still used Ingrid’s money to raise Pia.
I agree that losing her parents at a young age had to have had an effect on her. It seems her first 2 husbands provided good care for the children. How nice it was to hear that Ingrid stayed home for 2 years with Isabella following her surgery.
No doubt about it, she was a great actress. Think, maybe the very early death of both of her parents, especially her mother, at the age of two had something to do with her behavior.
Nothing can ever take away from her beauty, acting abilities and her grace. She is still well loved. Always will be. ❤
How very shallow of you!
Yes, very shallow indeed.
I agree.
I will always respect her. She was always and will continue to be a great actor.

Charm and skills were stellar.
Divas are notorious for being demanding and difficult to appease-I would say that she was determined to live her life as she saw fit. Unless you were a relative or long-time very close friend, we can only infer what her life was like.
My husband’s aunt was Roberto Rossellini’s first wife, Marcella de Marchis Rossellini. After their divorce, Rossellini married Bergman but kept a close and friendly relationship with his ex-wife, with whom he had two children. Bergman’s children spent a lot of time with their half siblings under the care of my husband’s aunt. She apparently loved those kids as her own. Ingrid was not the motherly kind but her children were brought up in a loving environment. There are tons of stories about Isabella, Renzo, Romano, my husband and his sisters, a big extended Italian family.
Thankyou for this
She was a beauty with talent
No one should knock that
She was lucky to have such a lovely family from your side of the 'coin'
@@MaryamBraisby-hn9lo trust me, this is the truth, as recounted by my husband, as a child in Italy, his siblings and cousins. Bergman’s children were not abandoned, had a happy upbringing and childhood. I am really upset at the double standard: Millions of children live with their mothers and are not deemed abandoned by their fathers. In this case, the couple decided their kids would have a more stable and structured future if they remained with their father. Rossellini was a true family man. Isabella gave an interview a few years ago in which she recalled that, when her father died, many family members had to look for jobs. He employed and supported them a lot. Bergman was a great woman and should not be talked down.

A great story

What about Gil?
@@valeriemacphail9180 I don’t recall my husband mentioning a Gil. Who is that person? I will ask my husband…
What a handsome woman! How can anyone resist her? Her looks, talents and charisma weaponized her free spirit lifestyle.
It was her voice that I found amazing .
@@BlackStump172I agree, and I personally think the effect a voice has on a persons attraction and appeal is sadly underrated. Especially nowadays, when women seem to have forgotten that it's not just about big breasts and puffy lips.
Just think about how the voice of women like Garbo, Monroe, Bacall, Swanson and Ann-Margrets seductive voices added to their personality.
Unfortunately I don't think Ingrid Bergmans voice was as pleasent, as she grew older. And her daughter Isabella has almost an identical voice.
@@ingeabrahamsen4684 maybe? it had to do with her smoking? that can alter a person' voice. she didn't take care of her health but so many didn't and smoking was in fact encouraged in those days......
Yes smoking could well have something to do with it.
But I have another theory as well. I think women of her generation, when they went into menopause was offered hormones. Which also kept them looking more youthful.
It however deepened their voices as well.
What wasen't known (until later) was that it was also causing breastcancer.
And I could imagine that women in the filmindustri then, were more inclined to use hormones.
Have you heard the voice of Lucille Ball?
Oh yes oh yes stunning
Best to limit one's admiration of actors /actresses to their great talent on screen or stage.
Exactly. Well said.
Actors are actors. We see them on the screen or stage. We never see who they really are.
I don’t care what they do in private. The private should stay private. I don’t condone sexual assault. If that is the case, like regular people, they should go to jail.
Mask On Nurse Marty (Ret)
Good advice.
Agreed.
There human too
I recently saw a documentary on Ingrid Bergman - she was first married to a man and had a daughter by him, left her husband and her daughter with him - because he insisted on that. 2nd marriage to Rosellini (sp?) had 3 children by him and when they divorced left to marry husband #3, she left her children with Rosellini. If that is true -- different from my first feeling that her first child was kept from her; but the next 3 children, seems not to be the case. Seems like she was not a very caring mother but a great actress.
Also, to a degree I don't care if actors and actresses have affairs, but I care how they treated their children (Bing Crosby - 2 of his boys committed suicide, alleged brutal treatment from their father as children) Barbara Stanwyck adopted one son, and when her marriage did not work out, she totally ignored him and tried to give him back to an agency. He was devastated. She never saw him or spoke to him again; and when she died, left him nothing. Liz Taylor stole her best friend's husband (Debbie Reynolds and Eddie Fisher had at least 2 children; his reputation went down; her rep went up - she could get any man she wanted) Then she met Richard Burton, she dumped Fisher and Burton left his wife and 3 children. Both Burton and Taylor ended up being alcoholics and Taylor, addicted to drugs). When anyone is so unfeelingful or brutal towards their children - yuck!
You have put it so well ❤
Real wisdom there.
Yes! It's the children that matter. I don't care how good you are at whatever you do as a profession. Yes ok your good but when you decide to make your children pay, I can't respect you as a person as "great." You know what is great? Parents who take their real life role as a parent seriously. Some europeans are too easily impressed by shallow popular distractions.
Plp
😊
I understood that it was Rosellini who kept the children in Italy against her wishes. She was caring for her daughter Isabella full time when she was confined to a cast to cure her back curvature problem.
Ingrid Bergman was a great actress, one of the best and most beautiful of all time. I don't give a damn about her private life. I do not sit in judgment of that part of her. My opinion is based solely on the beauty of her art. What a gifted talent she was. And I can never forget her enchanting voice. She and Roberto Rossellini were La Dolce Vita.
I think her and Gregory Peck were an awesome couple, both had charisma and electricity to them.............my vote
I’m
When you see her in these black and white close ups you can see that she's beautiful, but in color she would take your breath away. And that voice, don't forget that.
This orator is my favorite. I love the way he tells the stories.

Not much difference. Both fantastic folks.
The Irish and the Scottish would take point with what you've just said! It's kind of like lumping all the black cloak from the Caribbean into the African-Americans populating the US. Not really a shred of similarity other than perhaps the color of the skin and maybe a few other traits.@@tiredlawdog
@@cookshackcuisinistaI found they both speak different dialects of Gaelic. I was told they can understand each other. I know their religions differ, at least in the years past. And lets not forget they both make fine whiskey.
Loved her so much. My all time favorite actor. She was brilliant. Seeing and hearing her daughter, Isabella Rossalini, was like having a small part of her back.
Remember her a little, but did not know of her private life
Yes many women have been scorned for same thing many men do!!!
❤
Oh brother.
An outstanding actress, who deserves accolades, over and over again. ❤
Ingrid Bergman is one of the greats, regardless of what she did behind closed doors. Let her RIP.
FWIW, Miss Bergman had one of the best quotes when she released her own autobiography,' [My exes] can tell their own stories but this is MY story!'
And, in fact, 'My Story' was the title she used for it!
"Story" is correct.
She isn't here to refute anything, and reasons for behaviors aren't known. Women's "liberation" hadn't come about, so there is that fact, too. Her children seem to love her and love her. I so admired her talent, her looks and her manner. RIP
She is don't worry.
That's right!
Do you really believe women are liberated? You aren't an enlightened person if you believe that crap. They just took away our rights to our bodies in 2024.
"Liberation" to cheat and whore around. 🤡
She was a great actress,gaslight the inn of sixth happiness casablanca. So many more. Cant deny ms bergman was great❤❤❤
My mother named me after the character she played in inn of six happiness.
❤❤❤❤❤
Oh no! She behaved like pretty much every male actor, smoking, drinking and sleeping around. An amazing talent
Hello friend....
Ain't that the truth
Ugh, 😮 I only knew about her affair with Roberto Rosallini. Yikes, can never understand what drives a person to be so self absorbed and manipulative. I know her daughter Pia Lindstrom was a very well known and respected news broadcaster in NYC but what happened to her other children?
Her daughter Isabella Rosselini was a popular actress.
Yes, and a very many of these male actors were also violent drunks, abusers and notorious adulterers! Once upon a tiime 'fixers' got paid a ton of money to hide or somehow neutralize the threat to the idol-ized fake images created by hollywood.
I always loved her. Now I'm just sad😢
Amazing how our country turned on her for doing the same thing men have always done.
Very true. I do not agree with adultery however, I really hate the double standard, when it comes to how they treated her as a woman with her affairs as opposed to men. When men have affairs, it’s treated as par for the course. This sexist, unfair double standard still exists today.
True, but Charles was turned on for loving one woman to where Diana had many. I found this extraordinary.
@@msladybugbubbles Could it be you really think charles had sex with or 'loved' only one other woman? Knowing the notoriety of so called 'royalty' that's a farce! Wakey Wakey. Read all about it.
Sorry to burst your bubble.
Remember, Diana was an innocent naive young girl! She thought she had her prince charming and got knifed in the back by both her husband and camilla, the queen manipulator/moma who actually slept her way to the top. Now, that's premeditated evil!
NOT just men, going all the way back to the era of silent films actors and ACTRESSES jumped from bed to bed. Hollyweird is a cesspool where decency and morals doesn't exist, booze, drugs and sex is common place.
Men, even handsome men, had to work very hard to get a woman to have sex. But a woman, a pretty woman, can get most men to have sex with her. Those are the big differences. Ergo, promiscuous women are seen as worse than men, morally.
Whatever else she might have been, there is no denying that she was beautiful and a great actress!
My favorite of the Hollywood classic actresses. I’ve collected her movies over the years, even her Swedish ones.
Ms Bergman was one of the greatest actresses, beautiful and graceful.
Her problems stemmed from lesser lights jealosy and envy.
Now, RIP sweet lady, forever missed.
She was an independent lady.
@@BrendaKDavis-cz7fc Oh yes...Her break with Hollywood over the possessive claims of the media on her,, when she teamed up with Rossellini - she was branded as "living in sin" and a traitor to America, which seems ridiculous now - both the personal and artistic partnership with Rosselllini and the move to Italy took a lot of courage, and showed her independent mindset. It took several years for Hollywood to reconnect with her. When she was about to travel back to do "Anastasia", her comeback film in the US, she recalls in her memoir how Ernest Hemingway came up to see her at her hotel. She knew him from the 1940s, and she was one of his "elective daughters". In a very moving scene in the memoir, she recalls how he told her, at the hotel, that he would follow her to New York and protect her if the journalists were difficult when she met them there - she knew it would be a busy occasion and that she would land in the news. She amicably declined: "That's very kind, Ernest, but I'll have to face them on my own... or they won't take *my* answers for good".. She was right, of course (and the return to New York went without major trouble). 💗
No doubt she was one of the all time great! Thank you for sharing. Only small man tell it all even after she passed away, very sad.
Only women can tell it all? Great line in the Godfather "only women and children can make mistakes".
Obviously, Ingrid was such a natural beauty, men couldn't keep their hands off of her! There's a price to be paid for fame and fortune! She said herself, the public confused her with the nun she played! Even beautiful, very talented 'good girls' have affairs! Her children whom she remained close to over the latter years were close to her and have publicly spoken of their love for her, understanding her need to be a great actress! Nobody is perfect! "To err is human, to forgive divine"! Unfortunately, she had a major nicotene addiction i.e. smoking cigarettes which we now know can cause breast and lung cancer as well as other cancers! Her co-star the late great Yul Brynner was also a nicotene addict along with the late greats Rosalind Russell, Audrey Hepburn and Jackie Kennedy Onassis, chain smokers who all died in their 60s from cancers! Yul did a commercial for the American Lung Assoc begging people not to smoke! His addiction was so bad there's even a video on UA-cam of him smoking while waterskiing! smdh
@@JustMe-uu3bh Both Jackie Kennedy and Audrey Hepburn suffered miscarriages and still born births , one each because of their smoking, and Patrick Kennedy died from a premature lung disease like my nephew did who also died a few days after birth because my sister in law had smoked while pregnant! Too bad they didn't know what we know today! smdh
John Wayne suffered the same fate from smoking. His last wife said that he was a major chain smoker, lighting a new Cigarette off the last one before it went out. I'm surprised he didn't have a stroke first. Smoking suffocates the brain from oxygen. Thank God I never had the desire to smoke, I wont even stand next to people that are smoking. I make up an excuse to leave.
After you mentioned it, I remembered that yul Brenner public service add!

I didn't remember that. She was a phenomenal actor.
Sad? It was all self inflicted! As for the pain her children must have felt when she abandoned them…she doesn’t deserve any pity or compassion.
@@UnicornsandFaeriesshe can easily afford it, lmao.
Hogwash comment
You have to love it when a famous person dies. People come out from the floor boards to say they slept with them. She was a great actor. I don't care who she slept with. She's a nun compared to some of the actors for the last several years.
Exactly!
There just humans like anyone else, the difference being their art is portrayal of different personalities, they are so good you believe straight away its them and mostly its not. A stunningly beautiful woman with a rich movie legacy. Always be remembered.
I have to wonder how much to believe of the comments by her first husband. I saw an interview with Ingrid's adult children where they said they adored her. Pia Lindstrom said this also. That rather than being broken by her being away from them, they were more excited for whenever she was around because they just "wanted more of her" as she was so delightful to have around. I have always been fond of her and her movies. I have no doubt she was a driven personality in her career and had her faults. Her acting was not one of them. I think it is hard for actors not to fall in love with the people they are in films with. Kudos to those who can resist it. I was curious the video did not mention her latter film with Liv Ullmann "Autumn Sonata" or her role as Gold Meira. At that time she was not so glamorous but still very handsome; they were also great roles. I believe she died just shortly after filming her role in "A Woman Called Gold" for television. I believe she hid her cancer from those around her
You are absolutely right. I guess we saw the same interview.. my husband grew up with Isabella and her twin sister, along with Rossellini’s other children. They are cousins. They were normal, happy kids who often saw and visited their mother, enjoyed unforgettable vacation time at Santa Severa and had a very structured life.
I actually saw her in the hairdressers in London shortly after she had returned following completion of the film role of Golda Meir. One of her arms was dreadfully swollen, due to the progress of the cancer, but she was so stoic that she had that arm strung up so the swelling would diminish before filming every day. She was only months from death and wore not a trace of make up but she was still strikingly lovely. Years before, as the narration states, she hadn't done any filming for 2 years in order to be with her daughter Isabella while she was treated for a curvature if the spine. She was absolutely unique, loved by her children, and a brilliant actress. I hate the tendency to throw vile comments at people now dead who achieved so much in their lives and I will always remember her as a brilliant actress.
@@alidabaxter5849I wouldn't say it better.
RIP Ingrid!
I'm always sad when anyone puts anything or anyone before the feelings of their precious children .
A mother doesn't have to feel-feel feel-feeeeel all the time for her offspring. The children on the other hand don't want to be "mothered" all the time.
Well, that's hardly likely to happen if the mother ABANDONS you. Mothers don't have to feeel all the time, true. But you have to take care of them and do what's best for them. They didn't ask to be here. @ulrikjensen6841
I don’t agree. My children always came first - all four of them. I am always surprised when a mother doesn’t feel the same way. But we are all brought up differently and have very different opinions about everything so to each his own.
This was not true of this woman, whose own children confirmed this.
@@ulrikjensen6841 Leaving the children and going off to another country to love with another man - not exactly a doting mother. She didn't raise any of her children - her choice.
She was so beautiful..
She was, but couldn't beat Vivien leigh beauty.
Reading all the comments, is proof of how much love, respect and admiration there is for her. RIP You were something to behold, and are still admired so much today.
She was a legend and as usual there are those who will cast shade but she lived her life in the manner that she chose. What a novel idea.
She chose to leave 3 children behind - glad she wasn't my mother.
I don’t think Ingrid’s first husband’s book was petty revenge, nothing petty about it. It was about the truth as he saw it, and considering how she treated him and her first child, I’m not surprised.
I agree with your statement.
Basically she didn't want to be "bothered" about her progeny just whatever could advance her "career." How pathetically shallow.
@@lilolmejusayin8671she could've been a sahm or a great actress.
@CWG-op9td and her next 2 children with her 2nd husband. She left them in Italy and she returned to the US.
Yes it's can be the truth h is truth and petty at the same time.
Wow,that was an eye opener,bit of a girl eh.Casablanca remains my favourite film,and I still think she was incredible 🙂
Although I also love Casablanca, I love it for Bogart. My favorite movie of Bergman's is Notorious.
And Gaslight@@smorgasbroad1132
❤❤❤❤❤
I don’t know why people expect beautiful actresses to live like nuns. These are human beings, flesh and blood, and subject to the same drives and desires that possess everyone. The only difference is they have much more opportunity because of their financial resources and fame.
As soon as I hear this narrator's voice, I give it a like 😊
Terrible she abandoned her first child, Pia.
Beautiful Woman - No one matches her today
woman
No women , men yes .
Ingrid Bergman was incredibly beautiful without a trace of make up on her face and, as stated, her husband controlled all the money she earned and invested it so that she did not have the fur coats and jewels of so many other female stars. She worked on film after film, was incredibly talented, and like many many other stars of the time had affairs with leading men who adored her. She was far from the only one. I deeply dislike this kind of muck raking of a dead woman, long after her death.
Her daughter Isabella comes pretty darn close.
Chrisean Rock looks like a black Ingrid Bergman
You didn't say anything about her last performance, "A Woman Called Golda." It was outstanding. She won an Emmy for it, but did not live to receive it.
Posthumously.
@@tinaarko6625i am pretty sure “posthumously” means she wasn’t living at that time. I could be wrong.
Who are we to judge Ingrid Bergman life, lets pay respect for her talent in.entertainment
R.I.P
Exactly!
I first saw Ingrid Bergman with Leslie Howard in Intermezzo. Loved the movie, loved her and adored Leslie Howard. Apparently my mother did too, she named me Leslie after him. When I was under 6 and walking in the street with my older cousin in the Bronx, a man looked and said and what's your name? I said, Leslie, he replied that's a boy's name. I stamped my foot, saying I am girl. Actually, it wasn't till years later I came across a girl who was named Leslie - Leslie Caron, the French actress. I sure loved Leslie Howard though, thinking when I saw "Gone With The Wind" I also was so attracted to Ashley not Rhett Butler. He seemed to be the most loving, wonderful gentleman. When older, learned he also was a man who had many affairs - alas the way of Hollywood for men and women. B/t/w mother's second choice of a name for me was Ashley. Leslie Ashley sounds good.
I dont know if you're aware of this, but Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall also named their daughter Leslie, in honor of their friend Leslie Howard. 😉
I named my son Ashley after Leslie's character in GWTW. Strangely, my husbands name is Leslie.
@@AliBaba-ke5jn That's too funny - thanks for sharing.
@@AliBaba-ke5jn Funny - I would have loved to have been named Leslie Ashley a two-for
She was a free spirit, larger than life...I love her movies
Free spirit is just another word for irresponsible and licentious.
She was always one of my favorites. Her portrayal in “Cactus Flower” was soooo very funny that every time I see it, she still cracks me up.
She and her narcissistic lifestyle fit in perfectly with what other actors and actresses were doing both on and off screen in Hollywood during the Golden Era. She was just more open about it than the others were. If she wasn't a foreign national living in the US, iher affairs would have been kept quiet by the Studios and their fixers.
Not just then, they still are!
🎯
Not that there were no male actors who were narcissistic as well.
she wasn't a narcissist - she merely did what Europeans did at that time although not everyone was in the public eye. you marry for status and then have a lover, it was pretty much the thing, so how is that being a "narcissist"? people like to point fingers while doing the same thing themselves. she may have made her mistakes *we all do, but her affairs weren't covered up like in the US, "fixers" did that, even Rock Hudson "had to marry a company secretary" to make it seem he was straight, and lots of others things. she wasn't so different but no one controlled her via contract like they did here. I'm not saying she was "right" but she did live her life as she saw fit but who doesn't?
@JustMe-uu3bh
Yes, you're right on 🎯
The studio owners controlled the stars' lives. They made the stars sign a "Morality Clause" along with their contract.
The studio heads made 💵 the police go away, same with an untimely 🩺 pregnancy. They forced Lavender marriages to cover
💑 👩❤️👩 homosexuality.
Even covered up adulterous affairs, suspected murder, alcoholic and drug addictions and looked the other way when male stars were "involved" with an underage girl because the studio owners were doing the same Damn thing!
Warner, Mayer, & Goldwyn look them up, you'll be disgusted with them.
A nation did not turn against her..a few close minded people did
The USA is well known for it's hypocrisy about "out of wedlock" misdemeanors, when everything follywood is crawling with crabs and herpes! Especially the Casting Couch. Most of which is fodder for You Tube.
How do you know?
Why do women have to appear perfect in their personal life?
She was a very beautiful and clever actress which is all we need to know. 💚
It was very difficult for women with careers in those days.
Peck had an affair with her. After filming she didn't return his phone calls!
@@ralphshelley9586 why should we be concerned about that?
Now they can sleep around all the want because progress. If anybody questions this, we'll pretend that men do the same thing, even though in reality it's only a tiny minority of men that are even able to do this, while women of below average attractiveness enjoy a level of social and sexual opportunity that a man would literally have to be wealthy and famous to have.
When somebody insists on this point, we'll just blubber about "jealousy," as if this difference doesn't explain the very double standard people like you endlessly complain about in the first place.
Her first husband had a right to his axe grinding, to be sure. Igrid abandoned him and their daughter, apparently never looking back. That said, his tell-all book was published AFTER her death, when she was no longer here to rebut his claims. Two wrongs don't make a right, IMHO.
No, she did not abandon her daughter. Her husband won full custody because of her affair, and he refused to allow her to see their daughter. Ingrid's suffering due to the loss of her child eventually led to her marriage to Rossellini to break down and end in divorce. She was wrong for the affair, but what her first husband did to punish her was cruel and harmed not only Ingrid but their daughter as well.
@@MadgeGreen that was sweet of you to bother to tell us, so many like to jump on the judgement bandwagon and her kids don't resent her and it does seem her husband was cold and self serving or so it seemed, even writing a book AFTER she dies? more $$$$? thank you for what you did, I personally love that you did.
Who really cares? An Actors life is rather surreal anyway.
❤
@@jegsthewegs😢
Ingrid Bergman’s mother died when she was very young, she was still very young when her father died. Ingrid then lived with an aunt that she was very close to and her aunt died when she was still young. I believe these losses really effected her, everyone she loved and was close to had died and she lost them perhaps that’s why she struggled to maintain permanent relationships
❤
sounds like Lucille Ball - Father died, mgm died, aunt died - all people she was living with - mother remarried and husband did not want children and Lucille lived with his parents - very cold, restrictive people. She was reunited with mother about age 11.
However Lucille made it her life's goal to reunite her family - when she could finally buy as small house in Hollywood she sent for her family: her brother Fred, her mother, her mgf, and her cousin. Cleo. Took care of mgf and mother till they died.
Some of us can remember how Beautiful Ingrid was a wonderful actress, a treasure to us all. 😢😢 Sadly missed.
She is legendary to me for being “when we had great actresses and actors. True artistry indeed. Seldom to never go to theatre - it has been years. I watch from the past. She keeps my heart.
You expressed my views so well. Unforgettable in "Casablanca", "Gaslight" and so many others. In Oklahoma a writer stated that it was an end of an era with so many of the "greats" gone.
You need a burning ambition to make it to the top in Hollywood, this cannot be held against her. Her children in a recent documentary clearly stated they hold no grudge against her, on the contrary. They wished they had had more of her, because she was such fun to be with.
She was a very courageous woman with a luminous sort of beauty that inspired love. What her love life was like, is none of our business. Can you define a 'scandalous' affair?
She asked Petter for a divorce but he flatly refused (greedy for her money...), so what do you do, stay on in a very unhappy marriage and as you rather vulgarly put it 'get your kicks elsewhere'?
exact-a-mundo, shall we say? totally agree. totally.
and didn't he write a book AFTER she died? more $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ for him,
to me that is added proof he didn't love her. oh well.
Such a beauty, saw her in Casablanca. ❤
I love "Casablanca" ❤.
Have a watch of the Woody Allen movie "Play it again Sam".

Peter sounds like he needed therapy to help him let go of the bitterness. He didn’t have a problem when she was raking him in the dough! And trashing a dead woman? Real brave.
She abandoned him and her daughter. He told the truth and was polite to wait until after her death. He did not owe her his silence after the pain she caused her child.
...so what she did was ok ?? He's the villain...no wonder woman are having such a hard time getting men nowadays...she's the one that needed therapy, not him...

You got that right! As a man, I was only tempted once, and I was cured. Don't go there unless you're financially immune.
I simply Love Ingrid Berman, not just she is really beautiful, she is one of the most greatest actress I've ever watch. I wish I can watch her old movies, now I'm retired at 83 years old.
One of the most beautiful woman ... ever!
As for Lindström, he was nothing but a creep. He dishes the dirt after her death when she was not there to defend herself.
It is sheer hypocrisy to condemn Bergman for most of what she did. Male Hollywood stars did the same or worse without all the tut-tutting.
She did not abandon her daughter Pia. Lindström fought for custody through the courts. Bergman lost.
She is one of top 5 actresses of all time. Beautiful talented kind and caring she was always gracious and elegant forever lovely. She wasthe best
These men she had affairs with were married too. How come they didn't suffer the wrath of an indignant public? Because she was a mother and mothers are supposed to be saints? TBH, I don't think her children think ill of her. I think she tried to do the best she could, because though it's true that actors and actresses most times put their careers before their children, that is also true of many other professions. She also lived at a time when it was expected for people to have children after marriage, regardless of whether it was a good thing or not. Katherine Hepburn's decision not to have children was not a very common one.
According to what my husband recalls, and he lived with Bergman’s children in Italy, they were happy and loved their mother, although living with their father. Women were so repressed in those days, it’s hard to imagine how much she suffered just trying to have a life of her own.
Ingrid Bergman had the affair with the Italian director B. Rosellini - he was in Italy not in US - no reaction towards either one of them in Italy.
@@LJ-ht4zs indeed they lived in Italy and had their children there. Even Italy, the epitome of Catholic culture, had nothing bad to say about their relationship. The US has always been one of the most prude and sanctimonious countries on earth.
Those without sin cast the first stone, ha
Oh yes shook Hollywood to its core what a crock
Well-placed sarcasm 😊
I couldn't leave my pets much more a child. Who needs a romance all the time. Ugh.
Having affairs while married is one thing. Abandoning your children is another.
This bio is well done, thanks😊 Excellent narrator voice...not AI, right?
All of our narrators are real humans!
@@Factinate I truly appreciate that! 🙏🏻I can't stand the robot voices with their mangled grammar and laughable pronunciations. You can just tell when there's a real , intelligent human telling the story. Up with humans 😎👍
I agree, I can’t stand AI voice overs.
🤔 Isn't this a narration🛌 of most of Hollywood's starlets?
HELLO Friend.....
HA
Ingrid Bergman was only judged and ”disgraced” in the US and Hollywood. Her career continued as usual in Europe.
I’m from Sweden and here she has always been considered as one of our greatest actresses, and no one has cared about her personal life, beacause, what on earth has that got to do with anything?
Europe is more civilized than USA.
Nice to know the Swedish people have good sence.
@@ellisburton8733 Thank you! 😊♥️
She was a good actress & in Britain & Europe wasn’t judged by her private life. Ditto Liz Taylor.
The cost of being a Hollywood star, has nothing to do with being in the US
She did what every actress has to do to make it in Hollywood.
but most of them were open ... she mage ppl think she was saint.
Beautiful and talented, but oh my goodness what a tangled personal life. A fascinating combination of an actress whose work you admire and a human whose behaviour you personally heavily disapprove of.... I'm a 'left behind' parent, it's no fun and no laughing matter but fabulous video none the less.
I would have been devastated if my mother left me - and I wouldn't care how brilliant she was as an actress or how much money she made. Also in her 2nd marriage, the Italian Director Roberto Rosellini also had done well financially - when Ingrid left him he had four children - 2 by Ingrid and 2 his 1st wife, whom he left for Ingrid. However I read that all of the four children were close and apparently he and Ingrid were close to the 1st wife. I guess in Italy things are more open and more forgiving.
Favorite narrator
It always amazes me that people want to know about the private lives of others. Ingrid was a beautiful person. Her private life was her affair. None of us are angels. We all have a pass, good or bad .
Poor Pia.
She's okay. She and her mother reconciled decades ago. Life Magazine did a feature article on their reunion when Pia was a young woman and visited Ingrid. She is friends now with her sisters and brother. All is well. No more "poor Pia" in HER mind. She loved her mother and eventually forgave and became friends as adults.
My favorite actress of all time. Every man mentioned was married, so Ingrid was just like them. Every movie she was magnificent.
She had no mother and no father what more can you expect?
If she was an orphant, who have raised her up?
I absolutely loved Ingrid Bergman................Great Actress And Those Facial Expressions..............No one could do them like Ingrid Bergman!
When I first heard decades ago that she had walked away from her children (without the full story behind it) my first thought was "Good on you, girl". It was such a refreshing take on any woman's life. I know it must have caused pain to each child as she moved on, but if she ensured they were financially well supported by her and their fathers, they probably managed a good life. No-one will cast much of a shadow over her in my eyes. I'd like to hear what those children could tell us. She lost her parents too early which must have affected her.
They actually loved her, including Pia, whose father went to court to make sure that Pia’s mom, Ingrid Bergman, would be barred to see her daughter. But he still used Ingrid’s money to raise Pia.
I agree that losing her parents at a young age had to have had an effect on her. It seems her first 2 husbands provided good care for the children. How nice it was to hear that Ingrid stayed home for 2 years with Isabella following her surgery.
She was magic on the screen. That is her legacy. Gorgeous.
I will never understand leaving the children you gave birth to for adventures and other men.
She left her 2 children with her second husband , the Italian Directer R. Rosellini
A great actress!
I married into her extended family. The only thing I know about her is she had excellent taste in silver.
No doubt about it, she was a great actress. Think, maybe the very early death of both of her parents, especially her mother, at the age of two had something to do with her behavior.
I love her and always will. Great actress
She was incredibly beautiful and i loved her voice
Casablanca remains one of my favorite movies
So beautiful and Isabella looks a alot like her
