..."the latter of which confused many of the more naive and incredulous husbands in the world at the time. " Huh!?
The author is just using the typical feminist propaganda that portrays all men as being either unaware of or unconcerned with their wives' sexual needs before the Great Sexual Revolution.

She was ultra-yummy in Boom Town. Clark didn't seem to mind either.

I think she claimed in her autobiography that she earned somewhere between $20 - $25 million by the early '60's, and blew every last penny. True. She wrote: "I figured out that I had made and spent some thirty million dollars. Yet earlier that day I had been unable to pay for a sandwich at Schwab's drug store."

Yeah but that still pic doesn’t nearly do her justice.
It was in motion that her intelligence was visible. She absolutely scintillated.

It would be tough to make a movie about her, because I don’t think they could come up with an actress with Hedy’s unique blend of beauty and intelligence.

Are you saying that standards of beauty have fallen?

She makes it look so easy.....
To: SkyPilot
I under stand that she asked that her ashes be scattered in the Wienerwald. I hope that they nourished some berries and flowering shrubs and then some flowering tree.

It is for men, and after them their sons
And their sons’ sons.”

An Austro-Hungarian Jew speaking 4 languages isn’t unique. Most would know German and at least 2 other European languages common within the empire, and then if they were religious they would know some Hebrew, and likely some Yiddish. Frankly, I’m surprised she didn’t know any Slavic languages.

Fun point about Mandl, as far as Nazis were concerned, he was a Jew or at best a mischling. He had 4 or 5 Jewish grandparents.
