Femme Fatale: Fallen Woman

  • Summary

  • We look back to the prehistory of noir and the early days of cinema to find the origins of the femme fatale on the silver screen. A tale as old as time - in this case, all the way back to Greek myth. In today's episode we delve into three films from the tail end of silent cinema and the start of the sound era - Pandora's Box, The Blue Angel, & La Chienne - to examine the fallen woman and see how she foretells the fatale's form.
