Added DiffLines:

* PrefersGoingBarefoot: She goes barefoot for much of the film. This isn't just due to Tarantino's famous obsession with ladies' feet; the real Sharon didn't like wearing shoes at all and went barefoot as much as possible.

* BilingualDialogue: She usually only speaks in her native Italian, having only two lines in English, but seems to understand English alright. The problem is, no one seems to understand her in Italian, and it's never made clear how Rick can communicate with her in the first place.

* FanDisservice: The last we see of her in the flashback has her standing up in a way that the camera ends up getting [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ouatih_billie_booths_last_shot.jpg an eyeful of her pert, bikini-clad posterior]]. However, that same shot also shows that Cliff had a harpoon gun in his lap pointing at her direction (though it's clearly seen that the gun isn't loaded), which considering how Cliff is hounded through the movie by the accusation that he killed her, makes the scene more disturbing than sexy.

** Not really, as was actually Columbia Records' real name at the time, and Tarantino uses it in the novel.
