The film "Sils Maria" starring Juliette Binoche is reminiscent of a Hollywood classic "Sunset Boulevard" that has been known for a long time but has not been seen. Although the content of the two is different. Sils Maria is a film about the actor himself. It is generally said that "Sils Maria" shows that women's midlife crisis is not accurate enough. Because it restricts the characters to how the beautiful, charming, ambitious women of their youth sway twenty years later. The film uses a lot of "play-in-play" techniques, and deliberately uses this blurred reality and fictional performance to achieve the effect of saying nothing. The film doesn't give a definitive answer to the question of whether to accept more of the times or remain yourself. Instead, it is arranged that the heroine refuses to disdain - is beaten and then accepts - sees the possibility of maintaining herself - an open ending. This arrangement may be because although the director embraces the new era, he still cannot give up the artistic dream that started from the "French New Wave" period. European directors generally put more thought into their films, rather than giving a simple either-or. This is also the reason why I like to watch French and Italian films more and more.
