...actress as they were to me. Elizabeth Taylor can get away with murder, but my pictures were taken off the market." Still, times have changed, admits Ingrid Bergman, 48, in the current Redbook, and so has she. The celebrated storm around her "love child" by Director Roberto Rossellini has died down, and the boy, Robertino, has grown into a strikingly handsome 13-year-old.
