Anna Christie is a 1930 Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer pre-Code film adaptation of the 1921 play of the same name by Eugene O\'Neill. It was adapted by Frances Marion, produced and directed by Clarence Brown with Paul Bern and Irving Thalberg as co-producers. The cinematography was by William H. Daniels, the art direction by Cedric Gibbons and the costume design by Adrian.
The film stars Greta Garbo, Charles Bickford, George F. Marion, and Marie Dressler. It was marketed using the slogan \"Garbo Talks!\", as it was her first sound film. Of all its stars, Garbo was the one that MGM kept out of talking films the longest for fear that one of their bigger stars, like so many others, would not succeed in them. Her famous first line is: \"Gimme a whisky, ginger ale on the side, and don\'t be stingy, baby!\"[2]
In fact, Garbo\'s English was so good by the time she appeared in this film, she had to add an accent in several retakes to sound more like the Swedish Anna.[3] In addition to the English and German-language version of this film, a silent version with titles was also made.[4] George F. Marion performed the role of Anna\'s father in the original Broadway production and in both the 1923 and 1930 film adaptations.
