Bombshell: The Hedy Lamarr Story


Starlet, screen siren, and “the world’s most beautiful woman” (in the words of Louis B. Mayer), Hedy Lamarr was so much more. From her 1933 role in an erotic film to her multiple inventions—including  the cellular technology now used in WiFi—Lamarr lived a very full life. Alexandra Dean’s eye-opening documentary portrait weaves together rare recordings and interviews with excerpts from Lamarr’s own diary to reveal this genius of science and film. Narrated by Susan Sarandon and voiced by Diane Kruger.
