I've been trying to figure out what the statuette knife in the movie "Wait Until Dark" actually looks like. When Harold Tuttle posted a photo of Venus Capitoline, I was certain he'd found it.
A little more fussing with the DVD, screen shots, sharpening and density levels, and I came up with the closeups of the statuette below. It's not a Venus statue of any kind. It looks like some sort of Wonder Woman take-off or something like that.
The material in the crotch area has folds, and it goes up in a "v", over the hips, and falls straight down the back, covering the butt and legs completely in the rear. At the shoulders there appears to be a stand-up collar. Around the breasts it looks like there's a v-shaped opening in the fabric, covering the breasts.
I thought the hair was just high, but it looks like there's a crown of some type (or a Wonder Woman-style head dress).
So, I don't know what it is. Any ideas?
