A Little Gem of a Movie
9 April 2019
I had never heard of this charming little movie but I'm certainly glad I gave it a chance. Perfectly cast, it takes a pretty standard story and makes it fresh. After watching the documentary about Hedy Lamarr and her inventions, I've been eager to see more of her work. She had great comic timing, and could express more with a shrug than a lot of actresses could do with a monologue. It's a lovely little movie, and it references the 1941 situation in Europe with taste. I can see teens of the time seeing this and asking their parents what happened to the father in Austria.
