Can you see through the tricks of Cinderella?

I watched a good black and white film "Comet Beauty" last night. From the very beginning, the heroine has won everyone's favor. The heroine is beautiful, pure, humble, sincere and tolerant, just like the poor Cinderella of today's idol drama, and the supporting actress is an increasingly old and flashy female star. A series of coincidences and the development of time, haha, the heroine is really a black-bellied girl who pretends to be pure scheming, staring at everything

that the heroine has. When her lies and conspiracies are learned by the villain, the heroine will become A defeated victor. The female partner has removed the halo and has love and friendship. At the end of the film, everything reincarnates: a new pure, kind and diligent girl waits in the hostess's house, waiting for an opportunity to learn and take everything away. ——There must be many such girls in Vanity Fair at that time, and ordinary girls who yearn for them, just as they are today. Everything is reincarnation in the past.

On the contrary, the female partner was let go of gasoline on the way to the field, and the words nestled in the mink coat revealed the true meaning: the woman kept climbing up, kicking off the things on the ladder all the way, but in the end she had to be a woman. I realized that the ones on the ladder are what women need most. In fact, they are just slaves to desire and vanity-cheers, cheers from the audience, it is more beautiful than anything else.

When I watched the film, I kept thinking that this beautiful and pure heroine deceived everyone and caused the estrangement between several pairs of previously intimate lovers. Faced with such girls, how many men can see through them and hold onto the real good girls?

All About Eve quotes

  • Lloyd Richards: Karen, let me tell you about Eve. She's got everything - a born actress. Sensitive, understanding, young, exciting, vibrant...

    Karen: Don't run out of adjectives, dear.

  • Karen: [narrating] Newton, they say, thought of gravity by getting hit on the head by an apple. And the man who invented the steam-engine, he was watching a teakettle. But not me. My big idea came to me just sitting on a couch. That boot in the rear to Margo. Heaven knows, she had one coming. From me, from Lloyd, from Eve, Bill, Max and so on. We'd all felt those size fives of hers often enough. But how? The answer was buzzing around me like a fly. I had it. But I let it go. Screaming and calling names is one thing, but this could mean...

    Karen: [continues] Why not? "Why," I said to myself, "not?" It would all seem perfectly legitimate. And only two people in the world would know. Also, the boot would land where it would do the most good for all concerned. After all, it was no more than a harmless joke which Margo herself would be the first to enjoy. And no reason why she shouldn't be told about it... in time.

    Karen: [on the phone, calling Eve to let her in on her little "joke"] Hello. Will you please call Miss Eve Harrington to the phone?
