Greta Garbo and Grace Kelly: Penpals

Greta Garbo and Grace Kelly: Penpals

Film

Though Grace Kelly and Greta Garbo never made a film together and were at least a generation apart in terms of their respective ages, they appear to have enjoyed a friendship. I’m certain that I can depend on my Stargayzing readers, almost always smarter than I am, to fill me in on the origin of that friendship. Judging by the tone of their correspondence, it would appear to have been a true friendship, not just cordial pleasantries.

      You were actually the inspiration, as I saw the first letter on your Facebook page, I believe. I’m interested to learn more about their friendship, as they seem to have had a strong connection. xo
