And she said she'd retire...

Every now and then the IMDB reports something that gives me the jollies. Today's news clip is an example:

Gwyneth Paltrow has agreed to produce and star in a DreamWorks feature based on the life of legendary film icon Marlene Dietrich, Daily Variety reported today (Thursday). According to the trade publication, Dietrich's daughter and grandson, Maria Riva and Peter Riva have approved Paltrow's involvement. Dietrich was perhaps the most outspoken anti-Nazi exile among Hollywood's German community in the 1930s and '40s and was denounced as a traitor in her country when she traveled to the front to entertain U.S. troops during World War II. (In 1998 a new square in Berlin was named after her. The Marlene Dietrich Platz is the site of the annual Berlin Film Festival, which Paltrow attended in February.)
