Details | QUEEN CHRISTINA (Rouben Mamoulian, 1933, 35mm, 99 mins) New print! All hail Greta Garbo, who rules the screen in this pre-Code classic that’s as fluid with gender as it is with historical fidelity. A 17th-century Swedish queen in king’s clothing weighs duty to her beloved country against passion for a life in Spain with a dashing diplomat, played by John Gilbert. “One of Garbo’s most poignant, touching, and enjoyable films, showing the Divine in all her glory” (Emanuel Levy). 35mm print from the Yale Film Archive. The “Treasures from the Yale Film Archive” series is presented with support from Paul L. Joskow ’70 M.Phil., ’72 Ph.D. |
