The film starts with an awards party, and the old guest actor who awards the award is speaking, but the voice we hear is from a film critic, and the camera follows the film critic's monologue to give a close-up of the person he said. Introduce them. Then the guests started to get to the point, praising the winners, and the close-up returned to the previous few people. It was very strange, why their expressions looked so deep and serious, and why did the film critics raise the corners of their mouths with some contempt and some ridicule? The story follows the memories of the playwright's wife Karen back to six months ago. After watching the entire film and knowing the whole story, it was pulled back to the awards scene. The winner, eve, took the trophy and started her acceptance speech. Very routine, she thanked everyone, the camera gave them close-ups again, everyone's expressions were still serious and a little disdainful, and in the end they all blessed eve. As karen said, "there is no so-called forever in the drama world, no matter what it is, it is here, it will ignite, burn and then disappear", they know too well that people come and go in drama life, and no one is always the protagonist It will never burn forever, and new people appear and old people end. This is normal.

And the ending seems to point this out. When eve is very popular, there are stars temperament and arrogance of margo, and there are times when fans break in to try to get close, and there are times when people are coveted, but there is only one margo that everyone is talking about, and There are countless eves. The second eve put on a gorgeous costume, held up the trophy, and bowed to the mirror, where countless numbers of her appeared doing the same thing. There will always be newcomers, there will always be protagonists, and they will never burn out.

I like this movie very much. The acting skills of the three women are wonderful, and their emotions, expressions, and feelings are all in place. Each person's image is very distinct, with their own characteristics and personalities. And the three men are also good, especially the film critics who have always been on the IQ level among men.
When I watched this movie, although I knew at first that Eve was not a good person and was not so pure and sincere, but in the process of watching, as she gradually became stronger and fiercer, her true face was Xi'an Road, and she had the ambition to lie at her fingertips. People's eyes light up, minute by minute they suspect that their IQ is not enough, and worry about others. But it's like karen laughing at margo who gave up the chance to perform and let him try to get the role but just played the eve that others don't want, laughing at everything is so ridiculous, laughing at his own worry is superfluous, laughing at life is absurd and It's funny, she laughed out loud and it's all like this. We also saw the reality of the drama circle, the drama of life, the variety of human emotions, the history is always similar, and the fate is always inescapable.

But fortunately, margo has found his own happiness, especially thanks to Bill, if he hadn't loved her too, if he hadn't seen maro lost the opportunity to perform and was robbed and rushed back to accompany her, if he hadn't proven himself to be love with his actions Margp made her believe in her sincerity and reassured her. I'm very worried that Margo will fall down. She is sensitive and has a deep sense of inferiority in her age. Now, she has regained her confidence and sense of security, returned to plainness, and is the most important life for her in the life she once gave up. Important role, a woman, a wife, even a mother.

The story is still unfolding, and thousands of eves are waiting behind. Life is like a drama, drama is like life.
It's so normal.

    Following all the award-winning and nominated Oscar Best Animated Feature Films and the previous Oscar Best Animated Short Films, I have finally watched all the 91 Oscar Best Films as of 2018! Comet Beauty still holds the record for the most Oscar nominations: 14 nominations, 6 wins; Titanic: 14 nominations, 11 wins; La La Land: 14 nominations, 6 Award-winning! —— Knowing the person and knowing the face but not the heart, I never imagined that this would turn out to be a story about how a scheming bitch became famous. The final ending is very well set. The two groups of people who love each other never leave and stick to each other, while the person who is full of lies and those who know the truth are still entangled. At the award ceremony full of hypocrisy, she knows him well, but But no one is going to expose the mask of hypocrisy. Arrange a "Eve Second" ending (you can see the existence of countless "Eve Second" through the mirror), um, it's really unfathomable human nature!
