Description:William Whitley (William Powell) is a famous astronomer who had just discovered a new comet. His wife Vicky (Hedy Lamarr) begins to resent William's nights at the observatory. She visits an astrologer who convinces her that she's about to meet a new love. When a handsome air raid warden named Lloyd wanders by, Vicky decides hes the man for her.

Reviews for The Heavenly Body

Review - Heavenly Body, The

Boring, silly, and hard to watch. Hedy Lamarr tries more acting in this movie than her usual routine of just standing around looking like Hedy Lamarr. She shouldn't have.
