{"product_id":"anna-christie-anna-christie-blu-ray","title":"Anna Christie - Anna Christie - Blu-ray","description":"When it was learned that Greta Garbo, was cast as a disillusioned prostitute in Anna Christie, even her most devoted admirers were skeptical. Not only was it an unglamourous role for the 24-year-old actress, but it was also to be her first talking picture. Garbo's answer was to play it with superbly. With her first, and now famous spoken line (Gimme a whiskey, ginger ale on the side. And don't be stingy baby) Garbo conquered the world of sound films.. Based on Eugene O'Neill's Pulitzer Prize-winning play, Garbo give a fascinating performance as an embittered prostitute who returns home to her father, a barge captain. She finds sympathy in the gruff, but kindly Marthy (Marie Dressler), but when a sailor (Charles Bickford) falls in love with Anna, she is forced to reveal her tarnished past to both him and her father, leading to a riveting climax. Among the Special Features on this disc is the German-language version of the scenario, starring Garbo with a different cast and director. Filmed on the same sets after the original English version was completed, this alternate version is a uniquely different take of the source material, one which Garbo allegedly preferred to the more-widely-known English language version.","brand":"Rock Band Merch","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59489448296529,"sku":"WBWA4947436BR","price":39.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/4271255-3074443.jpg?v=1778227017","url":"https:\/\/apocalypsevinyl.com\/products\/anna-christie-anna-christie-blu-ray","provider":"Apocalypse Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
