A tribute to the Austrian beauty Hedy Lamarr (1913-2000).
She began her career in 1930 in Czech and German films. It was the Czech production "Ekstase" (1933), in which she caused an international sensation by appearing nude and simulating orgasm, that brought her worldwide attention. The resulting notoriety got her called to Hollywood, and she was signed by MGM.
The studio changed her name to the more elegant Hedy Lamarr and put her in a series of exotic adventure epics such as "Algiers" (1938) and "White Cargo "(1942). Her biggest success was in Cecil B. DeMille's spectacular "Samson and Delilah "(1949) as the title temptress, but her career declined from that point as her looks began to fade and a new crop of beauties supplanted her. She left the screen in 1957.
