Lust, Caution - The Movie

The loss of innocence and virginity; an ominous beginning.

Which are the actor and actress? For love of and loyalty to one's country in time of turbulence.

A demure crimson tinged; temptation and admiration marked.

A picturesque pose - whispers of coded secrets, of an assassination.
