In the Hitchcock film "The Paradine Case" (1947), Alida Valli's character causes the deaths of two men and the near destruction of another. Another frequently cited example is the character Jane played by Lizabeth Scott in "Too Late for Tears" (1949); during her quest to keep some dirty money from its rightful recipient and her husband, she uses poison, lies, sexual teasing and a gun to keep men wrapped around her finger. Jane Greer remains notable as a murderous femme fatale using her wiles on Robert Mitchum in "Out of the Past" (1947). In Hitchcock's 1940 film and Daphne du Maurier's 1938 novel "Rebecca", the eponymous femme fatale completely dominates the plot, even though she is already dead and we never see an image of her. "Rocky and Bullwinkle"'s Natasha Fatale, a curvaceous spy, takes her name from the "femme fatale" stock character.
