 Green, who became an important friend and walking companion, was in the habit of tape-recording all of his telephone calls and, with Garbo's permission, recorded many of his conversations with her.In 1985, Garbo ended the friendship when she was falsely informed that Green had played the tapes to friends.In his last will and testament, Green bequeathed all of the tapes in 2011 to the film archives at Wesleyan University.
