Breathless is a classic example of the Femme Fatale, a beautiful, flirtatious woman, yet also quite dangerous. She has no problem seducing men to her side. Even if that man is a detective in a yellow fedora and trenchcoat.

Trivia

• Madonna was so interested in the part that she agreed to work for scale.
