Even-handed….you learn about the genius and the genius’ faults as well.
I mentioned that the documentary was even-handed because all too often, I’ve seen biographies of various celebrities which either only focus on the bad or only the good about folks. Folks have positive and negative qualities…and Hedy Lamarr is no exception.

The film is a biography of the actress that also focuses on her inventing the concept of rotating frequencies…enabling a sub, for example, to launch a radio-guided torpedo without worries about the enemy jamming the signal. It’s a strange invention for an actress to have made…and the film helps to show that Lamarr was not just a pretty face. It also, sadly, talks about her personal life…which was filled with husband and husband and disappointment after disappointment. And, it talks about Lamarr’s drug use (created by the studio) and her odd personality quirks. All put together, it makes for an intriguing look at a fascinating lady. Well worth seeing…and a nice film about a feminist in 1930s-40s Hollywood.

Amazing story about an amazing woman
A look at the amazing life of Heady Lamarr through the eyes of her children, the few left who know her, and 4 tapes of a conversation a writer made in 1990 when she wanted to sell her story to Ted Turner. Her story reads like a Hollywood screenplay. Truly amazing! The documentary does have several maddening shortcomings. There is no explanation as to why only one attempt was made to tell the armed forces (Navy) about her frequency hopping invention. For example, why didn’t she to Howard Hughes, who she’d been both good friends and a lover with? Many aspects of her personal life are also left out, buy adding them would have expanded the documentary to two hours. Still, this is a star vehicle, and as always, Hedy carries the day.

I was impressed by Alexandra Dean’s detective work piecing together how Hedy probably thought up the idea. And for those who sniffed at the graphics, they reflected the style of her drawings, and not a superhero movie. One small technical point that was missed is that frequency hopping is also the basis of multi-spectrum quiescent radar and sensors. As a result, the value of the market that uses her basic idea is far larger than the $30 billion listed at the end of the documentary. I highly recommend it, especially her reciting of the Kent M. Keith’s “The Paradoxical Commandments” at the end. Considering her life, it’s hard not to tear up.
