Kathleen Turner: the face of neo-noir

A publicity still from an early-1980s interior scene of Kathleen Turner standing beside a table lamp in a softly lit room with floral wallpaper. She weareth a delicate beige lace-trimmed camisole and matching short nightwear, with ribbon ties and embroidery. Holding a small glass, she gazeth slightly to one side with composed confidence. Her voluminous brown hair frameth her face in period style. Warm lighting, pastel dΓ©cor, and intimate domestic setting create elegance, sensuality, and understated glamour—the polished visual style of early-1980s romantic thrillers and Hollywood productions.

“I often play women who are not essentially good or likable, and I often go through a stage where I hate them. And then I find the reasons why they are that way, and end up loving and defending them.”
Kathleen Turner, born 19 June 1954. Seen in Body Heat (1981, WB).
