Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Body of Evidence is a 1993 erotic thriller film directed by Uli Edel, starring Madonna and Willem Dafoe.The plot concerns the murder trial of Rebecca Carlson (Madonna), who is accused of murdering an elderly millionaire with a combination of cocaine and vigorous sex until he died of a heart attack. Carlson is represented by her attorney Frank Dulaney (Dafoe), who is drawn into a torrid sexual affair with her as he tries to prove her innocence.Made on the heels of Basic Instinct, the film also played up Madonna's then obsession with explicit sex in her works, coming out just three months after the Erotica album and her pornographic coffee table book Sex. The original cut of the film received an NC-17 rating in the US, but was cut down to an R rating for a theatrical release.Not to be confused with the forensic drama Body of Proof.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })

Big Fancy House: Rebecca has one. Enough for at least one review to point out that if she could afford it, she wouldn't need to kill an old man for his money.

Bait-and-Switch: Rebecca and Frank engage in some very sexual dialogue. The next shot is of a couple making love—but it's Frank and his wife. Though there might still be some Retargeted Lust going on.

Amoral Attorney: Subverted. Dulaney's clearly not a good person given the affair he has with Rebecca and his later rape of her, but he does genuinely believe Rebecca is innocent of murder and doesn't use any particularly underhanded methods to prove it.
