I don't think that what was showing to be happening to her was actually happening to her. It's like she acted as if it was for the movie while it really wasn't because it isn't practical to actually go through everything the audience is meant to think she does when the movie makers and the audience can both agree to pretend.

Accounting to a recent randomized double-blind conducted by a team of Yale scientists, her provocative lips make up for at least 35% of her charm.

Baudelaire has some real great description of women, too. Try the Dancing Snake, the Beautiful ship or The Jewels, for instance.

If you want great analysis of good female characters, try Stendhal.
