There was a time when Greta Garbo was one of the biggest stars in the world. Bringing to life the androgynous Queen Christina of Sweden, Garbo brings strength and a commanding dignity to one of Europe’s greatest Queens. During her reign Sweden became a dominant force in Europe, notably because of it’s involvement in the 30 year war. The film though, is more focused on her political marriage and affair with an emissary from Spain. The film handles sexuality in a very fluid way, inviting a huge amount of homosexual subtext. From the famed lip to lip kiss between Christina and a female servant, and the palpable homosexual attraction between herself and Antonio when he believes her to be a man, the film uses the subversion of traditional relationships to complicate our understanding of traditional female roles. The film is notable especially for it’s remarkably powerful final shot.
