The Mexican girl played by Salma-Hayek is so brilliant, almost overshadowing the leading actor. As for the neurotic Vera, it is probably such an image in the original book. Just thinking that her death was a bit too sudden, Arturo faced her corpse in the ruins of being crushed and sharpened, and walked away after just a glance. ... Sometimes I feel that the existence of a woman is just a source of inspiration and material for Arturo. He needs to have love with a woman in order to write a story. As a result, the death of Vera and Camilla, Accomplished his work. At this level, this work has fallen into a cliché. The story of the gifted and beautiful women in the West. When the champion Lang became famous, the old love had already turned into dust, and there was no way to find the grave where she was buried. .......Women will always become victims.
The existence of Sami White and Vera Rifkin seems to be just to accompany the love of the hero and heroine. They come and leave without leaving a trace. Perhaps the little people in the world are just like them... .... Especially Vera's arm exposed outside a pile of bricks always makes me sigh, and things are fickle.
Just like Arturo, when he first came to Los Angeles, considered himself a genius and a great writer, but after a while, With only five cents left in his hand, he realized that he was no different from those neighbors and landlords who lived day by day. In the end, everyone would be unrecognizable, leaving only this love in the world. And a story written in the book.
I think this is probably the greatest significance of this movie (if you have to find some meaning)!
