While it would be a mistake to simply view Green as a sexual object and little else, given that she also happens to be a fantastic actress, it's somewhat unavoidable given her recent career choices that her nudity is getting more press than her otherwise presence in the films themselves. Still, Green's willingness to strip down for a part isn't exactly something new, and despite her own (scarcely believable) claims that she's in fact rather shy, she's been taking her clothes off ever since her 2003 debut in Bernardo Bertolucci's The Dreamers, and been the object of desire of millions ever since. If you need a strong, sexy, seductive female for a role, there's not really anyone better than Green at the moment. You can hear her without words.Is there any actress out there as desired by the straight male (and lesbian) population as Eva Green right now? The French star has been an eye-opening cinematic presence throughout 2014, first for her kinky, twisted performance in 300: Rise of an Empire, and then in last week's Sin City: A Dame to Kill For, where she once again cemented her status as one of the film industry's trustiest go-to femme fatales.

Green's artistic perfection is such that, despite your full engagement with her performance, you completely forget that she is not speaking. They tell us everything she feels inside-her fear, her desperation, and her disgust at the banker.

Near the middle of the movie, Madelaine has a tense train scene that is all eyes. She can't speak because Indians cut out her tongue when she was a little girl. Caught in the middle of this is Madelaine (Green), widow of the banker's dead brother.

A battle begins between the Danish settler and the banker. After Jon kills Delarue's brother in cold revenge, the town, which receives protection from the banker's thugs, turns against him. Some background: The Salvation, which was shot in South Africa but is set in an American frontier town in 1871, is about a Danish settler, Jon (Mads Mikkelsen), whose wife and son are brutally murdered by the brother of a gang leader and, as it turns out, regional banker, Delarue (Jeffrey Dean Morgan). Indeed, it is precisely this fact that enabled Green to deliver such a great performance in the new and excellent Danish western The Salvation without saying a single word through the entire film. On a stage, which is always distant, a face means comparatively little on a movie screen, a face is almost everything. One fact that separates film from theater: Acting is less important than visage. She has a face, and particularly eyes-big green eyes-that can communicate all the needed information about her character's soul or emotional state. I admire her mostly on a cinematic plane. My fascination with Green is not, however, as sordid as Pitt's response implied. Pitt, who had heard me sing nonstop praises for his performance of the Kurt Cobain–like character in Gus Van Sant's Last Days, looked at me for a moment and, as if finally realizing that my devotion to him was lower than the one I had for his costar in The Dreamers, said with almost cool cruelty: 'You and every other man wants to know that.' I never brought the matter up again. ('You are my first love, my first great love,' Green says to Pitt in The Dreamers, after fucking him on a couch.) 'What is she like in person?' I asked him with a tone that I thought perfectly concealed my fascination with the actress. In a sense-at least a cinematic sense-Pitt deflowered her.

The Dreamers was Green's first movie, and the first of the many sex scenes in her career-the most outrageous of which is in 300: Rise of an Empire. Pitt was sitting on the chair, the sun was setting in one of the windows, and Madison Street, which was three stories below us, was clogged with cars. On the penultimate day of the rewrite, I finally brought up Eva Green.
