The Female
Brigitte Bardot, Lila Kedrova, Darío MorenoLa Femme et le Pantin is a 1959 French-Italian drama film directed by Julien Duvivier. It is the third adaptation of the correspondent classic novel. At first glance Brigitte Bardot was predestined for this film because for many people she had become downright the incarnation of a femme fatale. Yet for that very reason everybody knows right from the start how the story will end. Eva Marchand walks the streets so proudly and so obviously aware of her attractivity that there is no doubt she knows it too. There is even a scene where a grown man spontaneously kisses her feet and she couldn't be less impressed. She shows just enough reaction to prove that her feet are not wooden. So when the ill-fated Don Matteo Diaz gets obsessed with her and doesn't even try to hide that, it must become his downfall, for it cannot be any other way. - 13
