Immigrant/American Hero swindled by the America government. An Immigrant/American woman drugged and used by Hollywood in America. She deserved so much more then we gave her. Eye opening documentary
... View MoreVery thorough and well researched. Gave a very clear eyed and unbiased view at the whole person and not just the icon. She was very much ahead of her time. The only head scratcher for me was Mel Brooks. Don't get me wrong, I love Mel Brooks, but his interview really didn't add any insight.

Her beauty was known to all, even serving as the inspiration for the face of Disney's Snow White. Yet few, including myself , knew of her inventing genius, and how one of her patents (frequency hopping) would serve in later years as an important part of cell phone, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and military technology. All in all, I thought this was an exceptional documentary filled with surprises.

Few knew of her contribution to our digital/wireless/blue-tooth enabled world through her inventive mind. Bombshell is that very story wrapped around her cinematic career. The director delivers a wonderful documentary of the great Hedy Lamarr.
