"Ecstasy" starring Hedy Lamarr: Can anybody give me some info on this movie? I caught about 45 minutes of it on TV. I know it was made in 1933 and was considered notorious at the time. It looked very well made. There was hardly any dialogue but the images conveyed a very strong sense of passion, almost seemed surreal. Every once and a while an image, that seemed somewhat disjoint, was thrown in for about 2 seconds or less, almost subliminally. I don't know if this was on purpose or just because it was an old copy (it was in pretty bad shape).
