What's My Line? - Hedy Lamarr (Mar 31, 1957)

[@censusgary]

Hedy Lamar was one of the most beautiful women who ever lived, or ever will live. She was also a math genius and an inventor.

[@troyruss4112]

Really incredible that two of the most beautiful women in Hollywood were Jewish (Lammar and Bcall...and Taylor (convert) )

[@winomaster]

@Adam M most Hollywood types don't have a lot of schooling. Those are their prime years for the camera.

[@connienewman1343]

She was really stupid here

[@cynthialyman2636]

Besides being a gorgeous film star, Hedy Lamarr was a scientific wonder. My engineering father was so in love with her for her brains as well as her undeniable beauty.

[@monoecumsemper]

Hedy Lamarr once said that her looks, which had eventually paved her way to Hollywood, had kept her from making an important scientific career back home in Austria. This is true as in those days there were no prospects for a particularly gifted Jewish girl in Austria with a stunning talent in math and physics, esp. for an extremely bright and pretty girl, whose father was the well-known CEO of a major bank in Vienna. Remember that after a very short period of her featuring in Austrian movies 1930-1933, Austria got infested by Nazi sympathizers in key positions from 1933 (Hedy's husband she divorced in 1937, tried and forced her to become a 'Germanic' housewife and to convert to Catholicism), although the country had not yet been annexed by Nazi Germany, which was to take place in 1938, when Hedy right in time had found a new home in America.

[@vicalexander3179]

Hedy Lamarr was one of my father Nimrod Alexander's favorite actresses, he found her a lot of roles. He recommended her marry a producer rather than directors. She married six of them and divorced them after she starred in their movies. She was a survivor of the Holocaust. She'd lost her father, uncle and her first husband in Austria's concentration camps. She escaped with her mother to Hollywood and made it big as a movie star. She didn't win any Oscars because she took only starring roles. I nominated her for a lifetime achievement Oscar because I knew her story of surviving the Holocaust -- Victor Isaac Alexander

[@mariafilotas879]

She.proves that beauty AND brains can be together. She Is not only extremely beautiful but very brainy indeed

She was already in Hollywood before the holocaust and her father died of a heart attack before the war and her mother came to live with her right before the Germans invaded.

I read the Allsop interview someone kindly added. So that gives a tenuous link to Kirstie Allsop, of today's tv, and I think she is related to Hardy, who was entreated to kiss Nelson. I had not known of a bomber command link to Christies, though BC lads do pop up all over the place! Thank you so much!

[@globalman]

It is amusing to look back. This show was a staple of life for us in the 50's. Hedy's hairstyle was the fashion due to Gina Lollobrigida. It was called the italian boy. Large ringlets often with bleached tips. My mother who was often compared to Lamarr in her early years had also very long dark hair but had her hair styled to create that look. I as a child was dismayed and wouldn't speak to my mother for a week. LOL I had only ever known my mother at that point with hair cascading over her shoulders and did not understand the fickleness of changing fashions. Her face, her voice were and are incomparable. There is no one in the past 50 years to the present who can hold a candle to this woman's beauty, talent and charm. But to be so beautiful is difficult and like all human beings we age and that for a woman was and is difficult. My mother never coped well which is how I realised how difficult it is for beautiful women and men to grow older. Nature is rarely kind. The only person I ever knew who seemed to challenge the ravages of age was Cary Grant. Some grow older with grace but the breathtaking beauty does go. Look at Robert Redford and many others. It is why many of understood Garbo's seclusion. She wanted to leave the public with their illusions.

[@barbarapalmer8224]

Yes old age is horrible when you have been very good looking...nowadays though there are loads of things that can make you look young again some people dont worry about old age because they have never been good looking anyway.

[@alicegarcia7903]

Aging can be horrifying. I know, I'm up there. It doesn't happen overnight but it happens. It's a big adjustment but we gradually accept it. When I see once gorgeous people now with extremely wrinkled skin, veiny hands, weak bloodshot eyes; thin white hair, hunched over with a walker or wheelchair it's is shocking for me to see. It saddens me. That's why it's important to do as much as you can while you're young. Aging is incredible.

[@kevinmalone3210]

Joan Crawford did the same thing. If a woman identifies with her beauty too much when she has it, it'll lead to a difficult situation as she ages and loses her looks. Some actresses who were beautiful didn't buy into it. Lindsay Wagner, The Bionic Woman for example, never had a face lift, but aged gracefully.

[@ToddSF]

Interesting film, "Algiers". Of course, it's the film that initiated the oft-made remark "Come with me to the Casbah", and starred Charles Boyer as the French jewel thief Pépé le Moko who was in hiding in the large, labyrinthine old native quarter of Algiers known as the Casbah, who wanted to entice the beautiful Gaby to go with him there. Of course, Boyer's character was satirized in Warner Brothers cartoons as the amorous skunk with the French accent, Pépé le Pew. Interesting that this 1938 American film was a remake of a 1937 French film called "Pépé le Moko". It cetainly made an instant star of Hedy Lamarr, just as you said. In this WML episode, Lamarr was 42 and still something to behold.

She had a formidable brain 💌 I do wish she received the recognition for her intellect in her lifetime 💔🌍💔 I also wish she didn’t let herself go under experimental facial surgery to retain her looks 💔🌍💔RIP HL

Hedy Lamar; brilliant, talented and beautiful.

I am fascinated with the history of auctioneering. He said that Christie’s has been in business since 1760.

This kind of woman with class like Hedy Lamarr is what's make America Great

[@nanaberry4120]

What a lovely, smart lady.

Hedy's wink was just marvellous! What charm she had!

Hedy Lamar, yet another perfect example of a beautiful woman aging like fine wine

When Hedy greets the panel you can see Dorothy tip her head slightly for an expected kiss on the cheek but Hedy just shake her hands. 18:53

[@noel888]

Dorothy printed in her column at the time, Hedy's movie, "Samson & Delilah" was released, that Hedy was so beautiful in it, more than the Taj Mahal" in Argo. How can you make a comparison between a Human and a Temple?

[@terryv]

Yes, that was an obvious disappointment for Dorothy, who was clearly expecting a cheek-to-cheek social "kiss".

[@aucourant9998]

I wouldn't have recognised her here. When she was younger she was stunningly beautiful.

Dorothy asks the prison designer if there is a product involved with what he did. The answer was no, but I think it should have been yes. The product is the blueprint for the prison that's to be built.

[@terryv]

Actually, she was dead right - the product WAS prisons. And he was the designer of the product! Daly was utterly wrong - and rather huffy and dismissive toward Dorothy.

Hedy was certainly the most beautiful girl in the world,like many stars male and female of the golden era of Hollywood,admitted!!!

[@robinblankenship117]

Enjoy the channel yet on this one the sound seemed lower than usual. The dog groomer was quite a glamour girl!
