Baby Face (1933)
Welcome Guest 
"Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in."
The Godfather: Part III, 1990
Lily is introduced climbing the back stairs to her father's speakeasy. She'll spend the rest of movie climbing.
Interesting film, Elvis.
Maybe the first Pre-Code film that approaches a not easy topic: a woman using her "power" on men.
p.s. Nietzsche docet
Drinking wine, offering or asking sex ...
It also can happen that roles are reversed... So who does really use the other?
Cinematic language (BabyFace) as symbology in the Flemish art .. Asking and obtaining sex
Refusing...
(Vermeer)
NICE!
Like the speakeasy crowded with men, the backrooms are cluttered with beer bottles (and she is about to brain the speakeasy's city hall connection with one)
