Want to Write a Guest Post for Women and ...Hedy Lamarr: Way More Than Just a Pretty Face
A movie about Lamarr, Face Value has been in the works for some time with Rachel Weisz attached. I haven't heard much about it recently. Amy Redford was developing it but I believe she has left the project. Maybe this new interest in Lamarr will help spur getting that film off the ground.
Check out this piece on Lamarr from CBS Sunday Morning

I found Rhodes's book about Hedy Lamarr oddly Hedy-free. Her young days in the German film and theater community are detailed, but as soon as she runs away from her first husband (he's a Nazi), we switch to her collaborator on the patent, George Antheil. He's a fascinating character but strangely, after that, he see Hedy mostly through his eyes. It helped that he had an autobiography that Rhodes could refer to, and Hedy didn't. But I suspect there is a lot more there to Hedy, and not all of it is pretty.
