In a good detective can be a bad villain, but a good weird woman should be required. This is the ABC of Hollywood and his “our father”. Exceptions were not allowed to do to anyone, not even Polanski, Hitchcock.

Pope Francis called sex a “gift of God”
The heroine worked as a background for the world of harsh men’s showdown and even if he acted as a plot trigger (most often, of course, the victim), it was not supposed to divert its beauty from the main brutal confrontation between the two males.
The man who broke this seemingly solid design, name is Brian De Palma. Titan of genre films, the producer of the films “Carrie,” “Scarface” and “Mission impossible”, he in 1980 he directed “the Razor” (original — Dressed To Kill), where the sex was as equal mover of the plot as a crime. Accordingly, in the picture there were plenty of delicate scenes, although the actress Angie Dickinson dubbed model Penthouse (which is not surprising, given that Dickinson was 49).
The film has proved to be remarkably controversial, has received several nominations for “Razzie” (and a performer second lead female role Nancy Allen was nominated as “Raspberries” and “Golden globe”) and gave rise to a new genre. Porn star Ron Jeremy spoke in that spirit that, they say, and these people forbid us to pick your nose, and Leonard Maltin, American film critic number one, in 1994, lamented that 15 years ago no one knew, and those words — “erotic Thriller”, and nothing lived somehow.
Later Brian De Palma took at least three paintings in this genre (one of them — “body double” is very good, much better than “Razor”), but its value is not in quantity and not even as a pioneer in any matter to be important and difficult.
