Boyfriend Bluff | |
| Black Widow (1987) / int_835d1b46 | comment |
Boyfriend Bluff: Alexandra Barnes and "Renée Walker" (the Black Widow) are taking a scuba diving class. An unattractive woman with a cold asks to be Renée's partner, but Alexandra intervenes and says that she and Renée had already agreed to be partners, much to Renée's relief. This example fits the trope because there is considerable subsequent romantic subtext between Alexandra and the Black Widow, including two kisses. | |

Black Widow: Of course. The title character seduces, marries, and then murders wealthy men, extensively researching each target so she can present herself as the girl of their dreams. | |

Animal Motifs: The character played by Theresa Russell is compared to a black widow, a spider that eats her mate after reproduction. Alex even offers her a pendant shaped like a spider and she immediately understands the symbol. | |
