Ellen Margit Teresia Ringenson (née Andersohn; 31 July 1897 – 8 August 1986), known professionally as Margit Andelius, was a Swedish actress. She made her film debut in 1934 in Uppsagd and went on to appear in supporting and character roles in a large number of Swedish films and television productions over the following decades, with screen credits running from 1934 to 1981.[1]
In addition to her film work, Andelius appeared on stage at several Stockholm theatres, including Vasateatern and Blancheteatern. In 1944 she played Aunt Bina in Ingmar Bergman's staging of Hjalmar Bergman's one-act play Herr Sleeman kommer at Dramatikerstudion in Stockholm.[2]
After her 1934 film debut, Andelius appeared in dozens of Swedish films during the studio era, almost always in supporting and character roles.[1] Her later credits include television work; her final listed appearance was in the SVT television series Babels hus in 1981.[1]
