Ingrid Bergman Trivia
|
- Cary Grant, her great friend, accepted her Anastasia Oscar at the 29th Annual Academy Awards (1957).
- Her autobiography, My Story, published in 1980 was a best-seller.
- When Ernest Hemingway told her she would have to cut off her hair for the role of Maria in For Whom the Bell Tolls, she shot back, "To get that part, I'd cut my head off!" She would rehearse tirelessly until any hour of the night, begging to repeat a scene long after the director was satisfied.
- Her daughter, Pia Lindstrom accepted her Best Leading Actress Emmy for A Woman Called Golda posthumously. Bergman died 3 weeks prior to the ceremony, after the ballots were cast.
- During the making of Casablanca (1942) Humphrey Bogart's wife Mayo Methot continually accused him of having an affair with Bergman, often confronting him in his dressing room before a shot. Bogart would come onto the set in a rage.
