Episode 4: The most fabulous Femmes Fatales

The femme fatale—a man-devouring seductress? Boring! Our women are fatal to some people because they push boundaries, break taboos, and refuse to be belittled. Whether it’s Frida Kahlo, who turned the art world upside down with her talent; Laura Bassi, who seeks to control a divine power; or Josephine Baker, who is far more than just a banana skirt and a sexy hip swing. So, “curtain up” for our fabulous fatal women.
