  Unless she had a less-successful sister, you are referring to HEDY Lamarr lol...
  
  
  
  but is this why she came up in your revision?
  
  Lamarr also co-invented – with composer George Antheil – an early technique for spread spectrum communications and frequency hopping, necessary to wireless communication from the pre-computer age to the present day. 
  
  Only computers tell us stuff like that.
  
  As for "records obliquely about screen goddesses", I vote for "Kiss Them for Me" by Siouxsie and the Banshees (Jayne Mansfield)
  
  PS re. title - can I study computers too and revise some lolcats? lol tolhurst
