Inga Landgré (1927-2023)

 She was not on the list.

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. They divorced in the early 1930s, when she was only five years old. She was an only child. She received her theatrical education in Calle Flygare Teaterskola and made her acting debut in 1944 at the Blanche Theatre as Anja in "Körbärsträdgården".

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.

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. 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.

Inga Landgré died on 31 July 2023, at the age of 95.
