"Everybody She Plays With Dies." The Femmes Fatales of Billy Wilder's Double Indemnity and Paul Verhoeven's Basic Instinct Femme Fatales on this week's episode of WatchThis W/RickRamos. This week Ibrahim & I sit down to look at the femme fatale in cinema focusing on the very first - Barbara Stanwyck in Billy Wilder's Double Indemnity (1944) & Sharon Stone in Paul Verhoeven's Basic Instinct (1992). These are two very different films that showcase the femme fatale in all of its controversial existence. Take a listen as we discuss the history of Noir and the evolution of the femme fatale in this world. Questions, Comments, Complaints, & Suggestions can be directed to gondoramos@yahoo.com. Many Thanks.
