You can almost hear the wailing saxophone echoing through a dingy city alleyway while looking at Martin Rafael Class' moody black and white photographs: in the movie version, the camera pans across the facade of a dilapidated apartment building and zooms into a dimly lit window, where we discover a raven haired beauty—clearly the antagonist in our story—getting dolled up in her fetish finest. She's obviously up to no good, maybe something involving a knife in someone's back or a tablet of poison in their drink—some vixenish double cross where the only clues are a crumpled matchbook and a smudge of red lipstick on a cocktail napkin. (Of course, we tend to have these kind of fantasies a lot here at Fleshbot ... )
