I am 74 and have loved the silver screen actors and actresses since I was young. Timeless, classic movies, and Hedy Lamar was so talented and beautiful. I have seen this one before, but I watched it again. I never tire of these movies.

[@axeslinger94]

Towards the beginning of this film when all the children are at the local pond, they show a brief shot of Hedy's character gazing at her own reflection just like the myth of Narcissus, clearly foreshadowing the type of person she really is, a narcissist. The film is called "The Strange Woman" due to narcissism and the lack of empathy and moral integrity that comes along with it being exactly that -- strange. Growing up with a parent who displays the same manipulative tendencies, lack of accountability, and excuse-making is a fate I wouldn't wish on even my worst enemy.

[@lisahinton9682]

Hedy's beauty, charm and hypnotic voice is truly irresistible. I could't resist watching this classic movie again. Beginning of story was a little obvious but the ending was most rewarding. At first I thought the leading lady's name was listed incorrectly because of the other famous star with a similar last name, Dorothy Lamour. Both ladies are talented dark haired beauties, born in 1914 and had very interesting lives in addition to their acting. .

[@kellyraemillerneal5617]

What a great frickin film! Can't believe that I never saw this one before. Hedy Lamarr as "The Strange Woman" has all the charm and guile of Vivien Leigh in Gone with the Wind, and she was just one of the many women of her generation whose superior intelligence, especially her as the precursory genius inventor of modern day Wifi, had to be relegated to their private pursuits lest their "marketability" as "only" beautiful actors (or "actresses" as their "less than" labels once proclaimed) be undermined in the male chauvinist (and their subjugated female sympathizers) movie going public.

This brilliant script calls for a most complicated woman, and Hedy Lamarr delivers. Jenny Hager-Poster is part saint, part driven by cupidity and coldness. When she sees in others the kind of want that she suffered, she moves with alacrity to help. Yet, all mixed-up in her is the need for forbidden fruit. It all works in this well-acted, directed, and written story.

​@@SetmoseHaven't seen the film yet but what you say about him throwing the empty whisky jug into the river rather suggests her father was a drunk...which would have had it's consequences. People are not born narcissists. Some are narcissists due to childhood trauma and some due to having been spoiled rotten. I think 'spoiled ROTTEN', describes well the damage that spoiling can do. Although the word 'spoil' is already indicative of damage.

Hedy was eye candy, her acting abilities were limited for the most part, but she was a world known beauty and a star without question, this is one of her most memorable acting jobs, there's a certain range to her emotions which often didn't registered in her performances.

[@gailtrotman5256]

She was far more than eye candy. To carry off this role was masterful. No trick photography, no profanity, just pure, chaste acting ability. Actors are complex because of the profound emotions that comprise their beings. To read a script and bring a character who evokes strong emotions is no easy feat.

To be fair, with the type of film and cameras they had then a great deal did not register or was not apparent.

[@toscadonna]

I thought she did a great job. She’s playing a role of a woman who’s playing many roles. And she did it very subtly with looks, her eyes, different vocal changes, how she showed Mr. Poster her shoulder, etc. It was a brilliant performance.

She was also smart as a whip, she developed the precursor to WiFi during WWII.

@@cocoaorange1 yes, also the precursor of the cell phone. Amazing woman.

So very good, from beginning to end, and centered around Proverbs 5:3. One of my favorites that I've seen multiple times. Thanks for sharing!

A new meaning to fem fatale, whole different category, what a wonderful actress. She also gives a new meaning to "opportunism, " plotting, scheming, etc. Oedipal with a twist.

[@brucekugler5164]

Yes, children do adapt to survive and may also adapt, and it’s not as if she was born out of a vacuum, good point. If the woman was a man, would you defend him as probably having been conditioned to be a heel from his mother ? I doubt it, and that’s the difference in how aggression is viewed between the sexes.

@@brucekugler5164 interesting point, Well said. Even still though how could you blame such a beautiful woman. Clearly she had have been corrupted. :)

Such an amazing movie and Heddy Lamar was so beautiful!

Richard Widmark is one of the great classic movie actors, love watching any movies he is starring in.

[@bellaboop1]

A prolific actress in her time making many movies. Excellent and sought after for her blindingly obvious Talent. What a terrible and tragic end Jo-Ann Marlowe who played Jenny as a child had in real life. Retired from acting and became a prominent trial lawyer. In the late sixties had a horrific car accident which left her in a coma for the next 22 years.

[@ikutu7771958]

Wow! Glued to the screen the whole time. Awesome!!

[@RetiredLover]

Bee, I agree with you. I do feel sorry for people, see comments, that have to resort to vulgarity to make a point or to show how worldly and tough they are. They don’t know it but they missing out on the finer things in life.

[@Papa-o33963]

Yes indeed brother.

[@TheCaramel60]

She wasn't getting off on her father beating her. She was being defiant and showing her father his beatings no longer affected her. SMH!!

[@typower9]

Haven't seen the film yet but from your description I think the scene is probably there to indicate that she has suppressed her emotions as a means to not feel pain.

[@paintilludrop]

Showing her shoulder to the old man was a sexual move..pure white, with red marks..

If anyone every asked me to recommend a film about narcissism, this would be at the top of my list.

[@tinkerbell2675]

This movie reminds me so much of Gone with the Wind. Oh what tangled webs we weave when we practice to deceive. But those guys just keep on wanting them beautiful women that has their nails that extends out sometimes when they shouldn't LOL.
