"What she had was incredibly instinctual—and dazzling," said Gottfried Reinhardt. "She could walk in a room and talk absolute rot, but she dazzled you." Sam Green viewed Garbo from a different perspective. "She was the best conversationalist of anybody I knew," he says. "She put things in a kind of prose, which I daresay she thought about a good deal because she had a lot of time alone... She made up her own rules and, of course, there were special codes. There were references to things that happened in the past that we developed a whole kind of strange dialogue and vocabulary [for] . . . She loved making up codes. You'd tell her something and three days later, she’d come up with an entirely different version which was very funny. She was a comedienne, and it was worth seeing what her take was and how far her imagination would take her.... She was more playful than anybody my age."
Of course, there were many subjects that one dared not broach with her. Friends learned that Garbo talked about herself only in the most indirect terms. "I think she thought if she never referred to herself, no one could quote her," says Betty Spiegel. In the twenty years that Sam Green knew her, she rarely used the words I, me, or mine. In effect, she viewed her past in much the same way as she looked at her movies: removed, impersonal—almost as if it had been someone else's life.
Greta Garbo by Arnold Genthe c. 1925
