発行者による作品情報
Drawing on her many conversations with Ingrid Bergman and her family, author Charlotte Chandler presents a compellingly intimate biography of one of the most iconic and beloved classic Hollywood stars.
During a career spanning five decades, Ingrid Bergman was one of the most acclaimed and glamorous movie stars—until she became one of the most controversial. Now, her full story, from her climb to stardom to the international scandal that nearly destroyed her career and finally to her redemptive return to Hollywood, is explored as never before.
Based on extensive conversations with Bergman herself, her one-time husband, Roberto Rossellini, her children, and her many colleagues—such as Alfred Hitchcock, Cary Grant, Greta Garbo, and more—Ingrid reveals a complex and fascinating woman who lived life intensely.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The author of many Hollywood biographies, Chandler (Hello, I Must Be Going: Groucho Marx) offers a straightforward account of one of the more intriguing Golden Age stars. Bergman died young of cancer on her 67th birthday in 1982. Her husbands, lovers, children, and the directors and actors with whom she worked, have been generous in granting interviews, and while there's not much new or exciting aside from the well-known scandal Bergman caused when she deserted her dentist husband (Petter Lindstrom) for Italian director Roberto Rossellini (father of her twin daughters Isabella and Isotta) there's a lot of warm reminiscences . Chandler's book will be nicely timed with Turner Classic Movies, which has made March Bergman month. 40 b&w photographs not seen by PW.
