Hedy Lamarr: a beautiful & underated actress
By an Amazon.com customer

	Ecstasy (Extase) Buy new: $22.49 / Used from: $14.93 The notorious 1933 Czech film that featured Hedy Kiesler's (Lamarr) nude swimming scene and love scene is very tame by modern standards yet still remains spicy!
	Algiers Buy new: $7.98 / Used from: $1.97 Captivating remake of the French version (Pepe Le Moko), with Charles Boyer and Lamarr making a sizzling screen couple! It's a shame that this classic hasn't been properly restored on dvd.
	Boom Town [VHS] Buy used from: $0.89 Here Lamarr was in a supporting role and largely overshadowed by stars Clark Gable, Spencer Tracy, and Claudette Colbert.
	Comrade X [VHS] Buy used from: $12.55 Delightful Ninotchka-like comedy with Clark Gable helping Lamarr escape Communist Russia! Very bold for its time.
	Ziegfeld Girl Buy new: $18.49 / Used from: $3.65 Very entertaining musical about three beautiful women (Lana Turner, Hedy Lamarr, and Judy Garland) who dream of becoming Ziegfeld showgirls. This was one of Lana Turner's favorite roles.
	White Cargo [VHS] Buy used from: $14.74 Lamarr looked more stunningly beautiful than ever in her unforgettable role as the seductive Tondelayo.
	Tortilla Flat [VHS] Buy used from: $6.20 Spencer Tracy, Hedy Lamarr, and John Garfield bring Steinback's novel to life in this enjoyable classic.
	Experiment Perilous Buy used from: $15.00 Called a "Gaslight rip-off" by some, this thriller has Lamarr being rescued by George Brent from her evil husband Paul Lukas. Enjoyable, if unoriginal!
	The Strange Woman Buy new: $7.98 / Used from: $2.66 My personal favorite Lamarr film! She's ravishingly beautiful as a seductive woman in a small 19th-century Maine town who will stop at nothing to get the men she wants! Unforgettable!
	Dishonored Lady Buy new: $7.98 / Used from: $0.75 Captivating semi-noir in which Lamarr plays a troubled woman who finally falls for the right man, only to be framed for murder! Also stars Dennis O'Keefe and John Loder.
	Let's Live A Little Buy used from: $24.88 Entertaining romantic comedy with Lamarr and Robert Cummings predictably falling in love.
	Samson & Delilah (1950) [VHS] Buy used from: $8.18 One of my favorite religious dramas, this Cecil B. DeMille classic has Lamarr playing the Biblical femme fatale Delilah who seduces Samson (Victure Mature)!
	Copper Canyon Buy new: $9.98 / Used from: $2.15 Despite having Lamarr and Ray Milland, this is simply another typical "B" western, although the plot of post-Civil War ex-Union miners vs. ex-Confedeate miners was interesting.
	Hedy Lamarr: Dishonored Lady/Strange Woman Buy new: $4.99 / Used from: $2.90 Incredible value for Hedy Lamarr fans! Includes two of her best movies: "Dishonored Lady" and "Strange Woman". See my review for details.
	Films of Hedy Lamarr by Christopher Young Buy used from: $29.99 Wonderful tribute to Lamarr and her films, with hundreds of fabulous photos! An absolute must for Lamarr fans!
	Ecstasy and Me: My Life As A Woman by Hedy Lamarr Buy used from: $11.95 And of couse, Hedy Lamarr's enjoyable autobiography, perfect for those who just can't get enough of her!
