Synopsis
Profiling the actress (1901-92), who "spawned more imitators than any other woman in the century," according to grandson David Riva, who narrates the program. The study examines her early films with director Josef von Sternberg (including "The Blue Angel"); her unconventional lifestyle; and her work as an entertainer during World War II.
