SHE'S BREATHLESS

Madonna was sleek and sexy as '50s-era nightclub siren Breathless Mahoney in the 1990 live-action comic-book flick Dick Tracy. Although the film wasn't a hit, I'm Breathless, Madonna's album of songs from and inspired by the movie, eventually went double-platinum, thanks to hits like "Vogue" and "Hanky Panky."
