She had a wonderful, drastic sense of humor and was very loving. At the same time, she was very determined and stubborn.

“He was kidnapped by show business”

He says that she never seemed sad about ending her degree relatively early.

– She used to say “Show business kidnapped me.” When I told you last year that Siw Malmkvist and Ann-Louise Hanson she was on tour she responded very surprised but also amused: “Wow, they’re still working.”

During one of his last phone calls, he told her that it was an anniversary screening of Roy anderssons “A Love Story” at the Berlin Film Festival in February this year.

– It was at that festival where the film had its world premiere. Anita received much praise for her portrayal of the fragile aunt of female lead Ann-Sofie Kylin.

Siw Malmkvist: “It moved fantastically”

For Expressen, artist Siw Malmkvist, 83, says she remembers Anita Lindblom with admiration.

– It could have been any size. At the beginning of Anita’s career, I remember thinking she was beautiful and moving fantastically on stage. She was probably a little jealous.
