Inga Linnéa Landgré (née Lundgren; 6 August 1927 – 31 July 2023) was a Swedish actress who worked in theatre, television, and films from the 1940s on.
Early life and career
Inga Landgré was born in Stockholm on 6 August 1927. Her father was a struggling musician whose alcoholism strained her parents' marriage. Her mother was a waitress.[1] They divorced in the early 1930s, when Landgré was only five years old. She was an only child.[2] She received her theatrical education at Calle Flygare Teaterskola and made her acting debut in 1944 at the Blanche Theatre as Anya in the Anton Chekhov play The Cherry Orchard.[3]
Landgré started appearing in motion pictures around this time as well, starting with the 1943 film Ordet. In 1946, she starred in Crisis, Ingmar Bergman's directorial debut.[4]
Personal life and death
Landgré was married to the Swedish actor Nils Poppe between 1949 and 1959. The couple had two children together, of whom one also became an actress.[5] In the 1960s, she acted as a courier for her friend Andreas Papandreou, who later became the prime minister of Greece, by delivering microfilm to Greece.[3]
Inga Landgré died on 31 July 2023, at the age of 95.[6]
