      Endless scheming bitch

      I saw this movie on Bilibili by chance, but I don't really like old European and American movies, especially this black and white movie. I think it's too boring to watch a movie without color, which is why I never watched "Roman Holiday" before. But the holidays were too boring, and I thought the subject matter was interesting after reading the introduction, so I read it. This is really the biggest takeaway of this holiday, and a brave attempt will usually lead you to discover new worlds....

      The glitz gathers together, and the repairing is tedious and turbulent--Remembering Bette Davis' "The Comet Beauty"


      The temples are full of beauty, and the fragrance has already filled the road.
      The so-called comet is inseparable from the tragic background of beauty's twilight. Eva from Wisconsin successfully broke into Hollywood through cruel and bizarre fraud and deceit, and became the follower of the dazzling and majestic female star Margaux. She even gained all the worldly honors and medals that belonged to her by concentrating on courting drama critics and having ambiguous conversations with...

      comet beauty

      Margot Johnny (Bette Davis), a veteran Broadway actress, is still charming in her old age, and is one of the most sought-after Broadway stars. A successful acting career, a glamorous life circle, everything looks so perfect. Until her playwright friend Lloyd Richards (Hugh Marlowe) and his wife Karen (Celeste Holm) bring the good-looking, intelligent Ava Harrington (Anne Baxter Anne Baxter) introduced her to be a sidekick, and Margot realized the threat to her from this fast-paced girl who...

      When they don't get what they want, when they feel unneeded, insecure, or unloved, they are bound to become unreasonable, hysterical, hypersensitive, and overreacting. Sacrifice everything to get to the top, and you'll need everything when you look back on being a woman. All women have one thing in common, like it or not, and that is being a woman. Sooner or later we all have to work hard. No matter how many careers you have or how many careers you want to do, in the end, nothing compares. He's...

      Some people open up the era, and some people still draw the scoop, but the character setting is always the same, they don't need a soul, this is the "forever" of stars. "Comet Beauty" is a wonderful translation. There are talented people in the country, but unfortunately, the beauty is easy to get old, and the coquettishness is only for a moment, just like a comet flashing by. "We came into this world with no intention of being...

      I feel like Eva is the protagonist. Bette's performance is not that good. It's not as good as the previous performance. I don't think it's the same as Gloria Swanson. How would an actress who is outdated live on the...

      And "Sunset Boulevard" can be called two monuments in 1950, especially Bette Davis played an old-fashioned actress who looks like a bitch and has green tea inside, but everything happened in the few minutes that Marilyn Monroe appeared....

      So lovely! The lines are awesome! The screenwriters at that time really depended on their brains to eat! Betty is so cool! (Although Anne Baxter's face is very expressive, and even has a simple and noble temperament, it is very suitable for careerists, but such a face and such a waist is almost meaningless to play "young and...
