Did anyone else think that Sonia character looked exactly like Greta Garbo? I was shocked, as she pretty much had the spitting image of the swedish sphinx except she had black hair.

Sorry, Delta, but I just saw this film on TCM. Yeah, I see what you mean about Sonia looking like Garbo. The black hair threw me a little, but the face is very similar.

I just watched this film this morning, and thought the same thing. Spitting image!

it's called "styling and makeup" + plus posing and photography.
