Garbo Talks (1984) follows the story of Estelle, a woman known for her strong-willed and outspoken nature. She is a lone crusader for justice, often landing herself in jail for causes like protesting grocery prices and standing up against catcalls. Estelle is a devoted fan of Garbo films, and upon learning she has a brain tumor with a six-month prognosis, she becomes determined to meet her idol. Her devoted son, Gilbert, a Manhattan accountant named after Garbo's co-star, takes on the mission to fulfill his mother's wish. He hires a paparazzo to locate Garbo's residence, staking it out and eventually securing a job delivering food to her apartment. Gilbert's quest leads him to Fire Island and a Sixth Avenue flea market, all while his obsession strains his marriage. Along the way, he forms a connection with a struggling actress he meets at work. The film explores whether Gilbert can find Garbo and, if so, whether she will break her silence.
