No wonder Garbo almost never laughed. The Golden Age screen legend was nominated for an Academy Award four times, starting with an unusual double nomination in 1931, for both Anna Christie and Romance. She earned two more nods that decade, but never got her chance to walk up the stage victoriously. In 1954, the Academy gave her an honorary Oscar, but by then the famous recluse didn't bother to show up to the ceremony.
