Im a big fan of Hedy Lamarr; outside of being a classic glamour queen and a respected actress in the 30s and 40s, she somehow found time to work with scientists during WWII and has patented, under her own name, some encryption technologies that are still in use today on the internet. I found this today: She had a racy past, appearing in the 1933 film Ecstasy. We see the 18-year-old Hedwig running naked through a field as well as acting her way through an orgasm. Ecstasy is considered the first theatrically released movie to feature an actress simulating an orgasm. Stray observations: - I have no idea how this film was released. The standards of the day were beyond strict. - The pearl necklace tossed to the floor at just the right point was a nice touch, signifying something, Im sure. - This teenage ingenue does a fine job of simulating orgasm; she makes Meg Ryans diner orgasm in When Harry Met Sally look tame. - The 30s Keanu Reeves lookalike seemed like he wanted to be elsewhere, like at a lemon party.
