I have cleaned up some subjective material but I still feel this article lacks overall cohesion. I don't think the factual information is bad, but there was just too much flair and emotion for an encylopedic article. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 12:05, 6 July 2006 (talkcontribs) Chupon.

[edit] Difficulty speaking Swedish

Hi there, I was just wondering where someone got the information that she speaks Swedish with difficulty? There is a link here for anyone who wishes to listen to Ekberg speaking Swedish. It sounds quite fluent (although she has an incredibly strong Skåne accent) and I can't tell the difference between her and any other 75 year old Swedish speaker. I don't want to change anything until I give someone a chance to reply but it does seem a little unfair to say that she has difficulty speaking her native language if that is not indeed the case. Good article apart from this though :) Intesvensk

This was previously responded to on my talk page. It seems like the audio file on that web page is not available anymore. I was there when she gave that speech and she alternated between Swedish and English, had trouble finding the words in Swedish. Author Bengt Forslund wrote about Anita in his book about Swedish actresses, "[she] speaks her native tounge with a thick foreign accent" (Forslund, Bengt, Bengt Forslund presenterar svenska filmstjärnor, Stockholm: Alfabeta bokförlag AB, 1995. ISBN 9177124448). Entheta 21:32, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
