Beauty Incarnate...
At
26 years old, Hedy Lamarr glows in one of her
first major movies. This gorgeous film, Oscar
nominated for cinematography, was one of the
many movies she starred in during the late 30's
and early 40's that made her the biggest movie
star in the world. The film, essentially a
romantic triangle, is often funny and more
patient than the average 1930's picture.
However, the real reason to watch this film is
Hedy Lamar herself. The most beautiful woman in
cinema history, at the height of her beauty,
gives a wonderful performance. Special note to
be given to the costume designers, who drape
Lamarr in a multitude of gorgeous dresses
throughout the film. Lady of the Tropics is
aesthetically perfect in virtually every way. I
highly recommend this film.
