The blog garbo-seastrom.blogspot.com, titled "Swedish Silent Film: Victor Sjostrom, Victor Seastrom, Greta Garbo, Mauritz Stiller, Lon Chaney," is a specialized historical and film-theory site maintained by Scott Lord.

The site serves as a deep-dive archive into the Golden Age of Swedish Silent Film and its intersection with Hollywood. Key themes and features of the blog include:

• Iconography & Film Theory: Many posts analyze Greta Garbo as a "figurehead of modernity" and an Art Deco icon. The author often applies academic frameworks (like "archival poetics") to analyze mise-en-scène and fashion in films like The Torrent (1926) and A Woman of Affairs (1929).

• Focus on Victor Sjöström: The blog extensively documents the career of Victor Sjöström (known in Hollywood as Victor Seastrom), covering his Swedish roots (e.g., The Gardener) and his American masterpieces like The Wind and The Scarlet Letter.

• Research into "Lost" Films: A recurring theme is "Lost Films in Found Magazines," where the author uses vintage photoplay magazines, sketches, and reviews to reconstruct or provide context for silent films that have since been lost or damaged.

• Historical Context: It tracks the transition of major Swedish figures—Garbo, Sjöström, Lars Hanson, and Mauritz Stiller—from Stockholm to the American studio system, and how their departure affected the Swedish film industry.

• Bibliographic Resources: The blog frequently cites primary sources from the 1920s, such as Motion Picture Magazine, Exhibitor's Herald, and various fashion articles (like "What the Garbo Girl should Wear").

The site is updated frequently with detailed posts on specific silent-era films, providing both historical facts and scholarly analysis of the silent film as a "deepening of the novel as an art form."
