Hedy Lamarr documentary at DVAA

Posted

NARROWSBURG, NY — “Any girl can be glamorous,” Hollywood siren Hedy Lamarr once said. “All you have to do is stand still and look stupid.” But stupid she wasn’t. The new documentary “Bombshell: The Hedy Lamarr Story,” directed by Alexandra Dean, explores the complex journey of a woman who was much more than her beauty. A genius inventor during World War II, Lamarr is now credited with discovering the technology that makes modern Wi-Fi possible. The film, curated by Big Eddy Film Festival director Tina Spangler, will be screened on Saturday, March 24 at 2 p.m. at Delaware Valley Arts Alliance (DVAA), 37 Main St.

DVAA’s 2018 Winter Salon Series is free for audiences thanks to the support of Larry and Shain Fishman. Seating is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.

The Tusten Cup (25 Main St., Narrowsburg) has offered to stay open late for those who want to gather afterward and discuss the film. For more information visit delawarevalleyartsalliance.org or call 845/252-7576.
