And had 2 Oscars already by the time Bergman came to LA in 39, Courageous and Boys Town. <br /><br />Plus, where did you hear Tracy/Bergman had an affair? I'm honestly very curious. Her daughters have said they never heard a word about Tracy. And my all the records indicate that anything about Bergman and Joan Crawford were simply studio PR rigged faked relationships.

Star- Ingrid Bergman
Abuser...Yes, we've got it-<br />Star- Ingrid Bergman<br />Abuser- Petter Lindstrom<br />Mogul- David Selznick<br />Wife- Irene Mayer-Selznick<br />Married A++- Humphrey Bogart<br />Wife- Mayo Methot<br />Love of his life- Lauren Bacall <br />Future A Lister- Gregory Peck<br />Foreign Director- Roberto Rossellini<br />Proved them wrong film- Anatasia, 1956, won Bergman the Oscar for Best Actress<br /><br />The A++ isn't Gable. Gable and the love of his life Lombard were married in 39, Bergman didn't even get to Hollywood until 39, so Gable obviously didn't leave her for Lombard. It was Bogart, left Bergman shortly before he got with Bacall in 1943. Thus why Bergman was always so bitchy about how great a film Casablanca was and always put it down when talking about it. <br /><br />Future Oscar winner, then almost A-list? I'd guess Gregory Peck. Worked together in 45 on Spellbound, when he was just breaking out as a top war-time leading man. He gained prominence from his first Oscar nom in 45, made Spellbound, the Yearling, and Gentleman's Agreement in quick succession following it, which is what launched him into the permanent A-list. And he went on to win in his Oscar in 62 of coarse.<br /><br />(It most certainly wasn't Cooper. He had been around and a big star since the end of the silent era. By the early 30s he was Hollywood's top leading man, so much so Paramount reeling financially from the stock market crash and not being able to pay Cooper's high salaries attempted to find a replacement for him they could groom into a new #1 male star. That would be the man in my avatar. Cooper's success in High Noon, was on his 3rd resurgence into Hollywood's top blockbuster levels. He had been A++ list for more than 20 years before that.)<br /><br />...AND once again, I'll say it- this is a hint to Enty's identity: he/she obviously watches Turner Classic Movies. I've noticed this a couple times about them. As they just mentioned this tidbit on Bergman being exiled to Europe for the Rossellini affair on TCM last night during an airing of Bergman's films with Cary Grant.
