Many times, many things happen, making people feel that good fortune is playing tricks on people.

In 1997, Gwyneth Paltrow broke up with Brad Pitt, and the fairy tale “Pitt Paltrow” of “Made in Heaven” was shattered. Gwyneth Paltrow, who has experienced the blow of love, entered in 1998. She first accepted the invitation of British director Peter Hoyt and starred in the British film "Double Lover". One of his hair was cut short, and he refused to become a box office myth "Titanic" filming. The effort paid off. After the film was staged, it made a sensation in the entire international film scene and became the most successful British film after "Four Weddings and a Funeral" and "One Off to the End". Immediately after, she filmed two remakes of the classic films "The Storm of Love" and "The Perfect Murder", the latter was adapted from Hitchcock's "Telephone Murder", in which she and Michael Douglas's perfect collaboration , Making the film one of the best-selling films of the year. This year she participated in the filming of the last film "Shakespeare in Love" that pushed her to the top of her career. Gwyneth Paltrow won the 71st Oscar for her outstanding performance. Best Actress Award, and became a first-class Hollywood star in one fell swoop.

Although she won an Oscar for "Shakespeare in Love", it is also one of the most criticized in the past 20 years. Many people think that Gwyneth Paltrow is from Cate Blanchett or Meryl. The reputation stolen by Streep is still controversial, but this does not deny that Gwyneth Paltrow's performance in "Shakespeare in Love" is poor. In fact, his performance is perfect. Regarding these disputes, I won't mention them here for the time being. In any case, God pays for her diligence. 1998 was the harvest season for Gwyneth Paltrow, despite the poetry of love in the past year. But for Gwyneth Paltrow, all this is enough to lose the mulberry elm harvested by the East.

But it is not "Shakespeare in Love", but the "Super Perfect Murder" mentioned above, which was also filmed in 1998. The three pieces of "Double Lover", "Super Perfect Murder", and "Shakespeare in Love" are together, and in the same year, and they have extraordinary performances and performances, which have not reappeared in the following years. Until 2009, Sandra Bullock. In 2009, Bullock, who had been dormant for many years, almost suddenly gave out "Fake Marriage", "Weakness", and "Everything About Steve", which not only won the box office, but also And also suddenly got an Oscar-winning figurine. However, considering "fake marriage", "weakness", "everything about Steve" and "Two-sided Lover", "Super Perfect Murder", "Shakespeare in Love", "Fight of Love", in the overall Gwyneth Paltrow is even more powerful. Moreover, her figurines were snatched from the nearly perfect Cate Blanchett or Meryl Streep. And Sandra Bullock was Oscar's little year. Although there were Meryl Streep and Helen Mirren among the competitors, the overall strength of their films was much weaker. Relatively speaking, Sandra Bullock is almost the champion selected in the scorpion, not like Gwyneth Paltrow's teeth.

But in any case, whether Gwyneth Paltrow or Sandra Bullock, once a woman's ability is released, she can only be unaffected. In "The Super Perfect Murder", this principle applies perfectly. The days of old Michael Douglas on the financial battlefield are over. The outbreak of the financial crisis in 1997 made him have to find new ways to maintain his seemingly beautiful life. What he chose was to find someone to kill his worthy wife, so as to obtain her rich inheritance. The killer was the lover of his wife played by Gwyneth Paltrow, and the actor was Vigo Mortensen, who had not yet become popular at the time. As an artist, Vigo Mortensen in the play is actually just a cover. His true identity is a liar, a liar who specializes in defrauding wealthy women. His approach to Gwyneth Paltrow was someone who borrowed her love of art and wanted to cheat her money. Although he also had feelings for Gwyneth Paltrow, at that time it was because Gwyneth Paltrow loved him more. A crazy woman who was so dazzled by love that she wanted to be separated from her husband who had status and status, so she eloped with the artist in her mind. But she didn't know that all of this was dangerous. First of all, the artist had two hearts for her. And her husband wanted this fake artist to kill her. As a result, a nearly perfect murder was premeditated. Gwyneth Paltrow had only one path left to die. However, there is always normality and loss of control in everything, and it is unbiased, this time out of control, so Gwyneth Paltrow killed the killer sent by the fake artist in the fight for death. And this is just a starting point. In the following, the fake artist and the conspiring husband will all embark on a path of no return. And all of this originated from a crazy woman.

Looking at this film from today’s perspective, you may feel that it is not enough, but in 1998, this film still got a good box office performance. It has also become a very important yard in Paltrow's successful vintage.
