Default Who was more beautiful:

Grace Kelly or Greta Garbo?


Grace (scroll down and click on the Grace in Hollywood link):

Greta:

Of course it's subjective, but I'm having a little disagreement with a colleague...

Not even close; Grace Kelly. Even in that somewhat odd photo of her with the specs she is striking.

Do you agree?

Yes. I think they both have that timeless, head-turning beauty, but Grace Kelly is possibly the most gorgeous woman to ever walk the earth (other than the Mrs., of course).

Absolutely. Dial "M," To Catch a Thief, and Rear Window. I've heard that her fatal car accident was very close to the picnic scene spot from To Catch a Thief, but I haven't confirmed it. Does anybody know?

Grace Kelly may go down as the all time screen beauty. She had class and dignity above all.

Your colleague must be blind and have no sense of taste.

Grace epitomized grace and beauty; Greta was just a sex symbol which are many.

He's citing that the Guinness people once declared Greta the most beautiful woman to ever live, but I think he's just showing a little anti-Americanism in his preference. He's a bit of a Europhile. He also thinks her performance in Anna Karenina is the most beautiful performance in a Hollywood film.

I think Greta was gorgeous, but there's several Hollywood actresses I'd put before her: Natalie Wood, Rita Hayworth, Ingrid Bergman, and Lauren Bacall for sure.
