Bombshell

This was a good documentary about Hedy Lamarr.  She's never been a favorite of mine.  Sometimes her performances were bad, especially in Tortilla Flat.  Yet this movie made me respect her a lot more.  There's no doubt that she was one of the most beautiful actresses that ever graced the silver screen.  Yet that turned out to be a curse.  She actually was a smart woman.  She came up with a frequency invention that is now used in Wi-Fi.  Hedy never got recognition for this or money either.  Basically, she was ripped off.  I like how the documentary doesn't really focus on her failed love life.  That's something that way too many celebrity documentaries do.  She comes across as a dedicated mother as well.  I plan on watching Samson and Delilah soon.
