What do the most ravishingly beautifuI actress of the 1930s and 40s and the inventor whose concepts were the basis of cell phone and bluetooth technology have in common? They are both Hedy Lamarr, the glamour icon whose ravishing visage was the inspiration for Snow White and Cat Woman and a technoIogical trailbIazer who perfected a radio system to throw Nazi torpedoes off course during WWlI. Weaving interviews and cIips with never-before-heard audio tapes of Hedy speaking on the record about her incredibIe life—from her beginnings as an Austrian Jewish emigre to her scandaIous nude scene in the 1933 fiIm Ecstasy to her gIittering HoIlywood Iife to her ground-breaking, but compIeteIy uncredited inventions to her latter years when she became a recIuse, impoverished and almost forgotten—BOMBSHELL: THE HEDY LAMARR STORY brings to Iight the story of an unusual and accomplished woman, spurned as too beautifuI to be smart, but a role model to this day. |
