About

Christina Alma Elisabet Schollin is a Swedish actress. She is best known to international audiences mainly through her appearances in motion pictures, such as Dear John, Song of Norway and Ingmar Bergman's Fanny and Alexander. The "angel" theme has become an integral part of Schollin's image, and until 2011, she ran her own gift shop with that motif and product, plus an adjacent lounge for performing arts, in the Old Town Gamla stan of Stockholm. She is known from television in Sweden for her leading roles in the series Varuhuset and Tre Kronor, and more recently as the matriarch in her daughter Pernilla Wahlgren's TV series Wahlgrens värld on Kanal 5 and MAX. She won the award for Best Actress at the 3rd Guldbagge Awards for her role in Ormen. After arguing in 1963 about maternity leave with Dramaten's director and theatre boss Ingmar Bergman, Schollin left the contracted Dramaten players and did not return until 1989. Read more
