Actress and inventor Hedy Lamarr truly lived an incredible life, pursuing her dreams in a world that couldn't reconcile the idea of a woman who was both beautiful and brilliant (not to mention of Jewish descent). Nevertheless she persisted, and this graphic novel is a nice introductory tribute to her life and accomplishments. The stylized art is crisp and conveys an appropriate retro vibe. My main issue is that it doesn't tell you very much detail, particularly about her later years. I'm not sure whether rumours were all to go on for that time, but that could've been made clear. It was just a bit of a let down to not learn anything really new or really be drawn into her emotions throughout the book. For instance, what happened to her other children? Did she ever need to interact with her ex-husbands after divorce? I don't feel like I really got a sense of how she felt other than generally stifled yet determined.
