New Career in Offing It was known only to a few of her friends at the time, but Hedy was preparing to embark on a new career, free of the restrictive strings of a single studio,. when ! she first realized the stork was on the way. At that time she was on loan from M-G-M to RKO for ‘Experi- ment Perilous.” Immediately afterwards Hedy completed her last picture under her seven-year M-G-M contract, “Her Highness and the Bellboy.” The latter picture has not been released. Like many a top star before her, Miss Lamarr was not completely satisfied with a contract which tied her services to one studio, feeling that too often she was com- pelled to accept roles unsuited to start of the war totaled 4,064,438, the document showed.
