Wilder uses the flashback narrative that Xi Pang often uses, and the psychological side narrative is exceptionally brilliant. The "greatest actress" who lives on "Sunset Boulevard" but believes that the sun never sets, the glory of the past and the changes of the times, indulging in memories and falsifying audio-visual, only this confrontation never ends. Black, but self-defeating black; the last scene shocked and stunned, to the peerless actor in my heart, to the sunset and dusk in my heart.

Seeing all kinds of sadness... Buster Keaton's face is covered with thick powder, with a sad look like a clown sitting at the bridge table like a zombie unearthed, a 50-year-old woman who has passed away, lives in a gloomy old mansion. Still in the flashy old dream of 25 years old, madly suffocating the last straw, eager for the halo to come again, refusing to fall back to the world... This is obviously a desolation sigh for an entire era. The screenwriter is bound to be deeply inspired by "Great Expectations".
