In the Tarantino movie Inglorious Basterds she is the face of vengeance.
Watch out for the moment in which Melanie Laurent puts on her make up with the notes of David Bowie‘s Cat People (Putting out fire) in the background, before setting up her destructive act, just before she lowers the hat-veil on her eyes.
What a beauty those two apache-like red marks on the cheeks.
Two signs to repeat each morning before setting our feet out in the world.
For urban female warriors.
For contemporary squaw.
To shade on the checks just before going out.
It would be a perfect commercial.
