Bombshell: The Hedy Lamarr Story

Step into the dazzling world of 1940s Hollywood and discover the extraordinary life of Austrian actress Hedy Lamarr. Escaping an oppressive marriage, she rose to fame as one of Tinseltown's brightest stars. But behind the beauty and allure was a brilliant mind—Hedy was an inventor whose groundbreaking work on a radio communication system laid the foundation for modern Bluetooth technology.
