Sharon Stone can be safely called the main sex bomb of the 1990s.

1. Memories of stardust

• USA, 1980.
• Tragicomedy.
• Duration: 89 minutes.
• IMDb: 7, 4.

The plot of the picture partly parodies Federico Fellini's "Eight and a Half". The main character is the comedy director Sandy Bates. The audience does not accept his first serious film, and the upset man retires in a hotel room to reflect on his life and work.

Woody Allen's film, which became Sharon Stone's acting debut. Take a closer look at one of the scenes on the train: Sharon appears there for just one minute as a laughing girl in a white boa.

2. Remember everything

• USA, 1990.
• Fantastic action, adventure film.
• Duration: 113 minutes.
• IMDb: 7, 5.

Builder Douglas Quaid suffers from obsessive dreams of Mars. In search of answers, he wants to make an imaginary journey to this planet. To do this, Douglas turns to the company Rekall, which is engaged in the implantation of false memories in the brain of people.

But something goes wrong: Douglas remembers the details of his past life and realizes that he is really connected with the Red Planet. And now the reality of everything that happens is a big question.

In the film by Paul Verhoeven, based on the story of Philip Dick, Sharon Stone played a supporting role - the wife of the protagonist. "Total Recall" is just one of a whole galaxy of militants ("Above the Law", "Specialist"), where she plays the girlfriend of a brutal man. However, the actress will play the main role of her life in the next film by Verhoeven.

3. Basic instinct

• USA, 1992.
• Thriller.
• Duration: 128 minutes.
• IMDb: 6, 9.

Detective Nick Curren investigates the murder of a former rock star: a man was brutally stabbed to death with an ice pick. The only suspect is the musician's mistress, writer Catherine Tramell.

The role that Sharon Stone owes to her image as the main femme fatale of the early 1990s. According to one version, the famous erotic scene with the shifting of legs was not originally written in the script, but was born spontaneously. As a result, this moment became one of the most cited in world cinema.

After Basic Instinct, the public naturally expected Stone to play more femme fatale roles. This image was not entirely successful development in the disastrous 1993 film "Sliver", based on the novel by Ira Levin. Another feeble attempt to bring Catherine Tramell back to the screens is Basic Instinct 2, released in 2006.

4. Casino

• USA, 1995.
• Drama.
• Duration: 178 minutes.
• IMDb: 8, 2
