Robert Osborne on Hedy Lamarr:

The Hedy Lamarr I knew was a blithe spirit, a woman with enormous energy, curiosity, intelligence, and sweetness. If there is any tinge of tragedy connected to her it comes from the fact that, having been blessed with probably the most beautiful face that ever stood in front of a movie camera, this was the only thing people were interested in. Mention her name, and no one ever said “How is she?” or “Is she well?” “Is she happy?” It was always, “How does she look?” Hers was, no question, the face of faces, but there was so much more to her than that. Indeed, I feel very privileged to have known her.
