Okay... one good reason to drop cash here. "If all the world's a stage and all the people merely players, who in bloody hell hired the director?" -- Charles L Grant

She's wild. It is full-on flirtatiousness." This depiction of Hell is sumptuous, decadent and dark, all candlelight and high ceilings full of Gothic detail. In Greek mythology, Persephone is abducted by Hades and tricked into becoming his wife and Queen of the Underworld . She is also the goddess of springtime and Rosario first thought of wearing robes and flowers. But the actress wanted to go for a modern look with "chipped nail polish and lace" rather than a T-shirt and mini skirt. Instead, she wears a bustle and corset. She said: "It's a little darker and grungier, a gothic image that I think is quite fascinating. "It is fun to reinterpret the myths surrounding her and try to imagine her and place her in this world. "She's very bitter and angry. She is violent and aggressive and it's fascinating because she also has innocence and sweetness and childlike qualities when she's not being completely bitter. "She is also very lustful." _________________________________________________________________ Hotmail: Trusted email with powerful SPAM protection. http://clk.atdmt.com/GBL/go/201469227/direct/01/
