Various things about it have been falsely reported: that Hedy Lamarr was the first naked woman on a movie screen (she was not), that it was the first depiction (however vage) of a sexual encounter (it was not).
The story is that of Eva, who - disappointed by her marriage - up and leaves her much older husband to return to her father's house. While out riding one day she decides to take a swim in a lake. She puts her clothes on the horse's back and goes skinny dipping. The horse runs off and gets caught again by Adam, who returns it to the naked, hiding Eva. The two fall for each other and do the nasty.
When Eva's husband comes to take her back she refuses. He returns to the nearby town, offering a ride to a young man, who turns out to be Eva's lover. The husband realizes this when he sees Eva's necklace in the man's hand. A threesome like this can only end in tragedy, of course.
Hedy Lamarr went on to become known as the most beautiful woman in film. On top of that, she was also the co-inventor of the method of "frequency hopping", now widely used in cell phones.
