Note: "A femme fatale (/ˌfɛm fəˈtæl/ or /ˌfɛm fəˈtɑːl/, French: [fam fatal]; lit. 'fatal woman'), sometimes called a maneater or vamp, is a stock character of a mysterious, beautiful, and seductive woman whose charms ensnare her lovers, often leading them into compromising, deadly traps. She is an archetype of literature and art. Her ability to enchant, entice and hypnotize her victim with a spell was in the earliest stories seen as verging on supernatural; hence, the femme fatale today is still often described as having a power akin to an enchantress, seductress, witch, having power over men. Femmes fatales are typically villainous, or at least morally ambiguous, and always associated with a sense of mystification, and unease." - (en.wikipedia.org 12.03.2024)
