alluring departure

Last night, I saw the preview for Match Point, a BBC drama (bizarrely, directed by Woody Allen), and this scene immediately jumped out at me- Scarlett Johanssen departing an elegant room, cigarette in hand. Confident, voluptuous and vulnerable- she is like a Marilyn Monroe for the 21st century.

Dialogue:
- "so you are aware of your effect on men"
- "they think I'd be something very special"
- "and are you?"
- "well, no one's ever asked for their money back"

Well put Scarlett. I can't wait for this film's release- Rolling Stone is raving about it.
