To keep fame and fortune forever, not to be forgotten is not worthy of sympathy

I have a cold, my nose is running clear, and I feel very uncomfortable, so I'm going to write briefly, it's

2008, and a 1950 movie gave 3 stars, isn't it a bit low?

I still give it 3 stars, even though it's a classic movie.
My star rating is mainly based on whether I think the film is good or bad,
not based on my judgment. . . . . . Well, forget it.

To be able to make such a (exposure) (face to the wound) film in the 1950s
really laments the development of the American film industry and the boldness of its creators.
It takes a lot of courage to shoot yourself in the film industry.
Self-deprecating family scandals, self-sarcasm, courage to face (the ugly phenomenon in the entertainment industry) the

alternation of old and new, the change of times is so fast,
life is too short, people grow old when they hurl,

although the film is in the 1950s, don't forget Oh, there are still 40 years ahead. The
next 20 years are the golden age. The first 20 years are the birth period and the silent film period.

The update is too fast. 5 years is a cross-generation, the so-called generation gap
. Years are not forgiving.

The senior female gossip reporter saw the sad scene after Norma went mad, and couldn't help crying.

I think, she is so professional, she has watched this scene too much, and she actually shed tears
to show that (the human heart is full of flesh)
The writer's arrangement was to give Norma sympathy.
But I think it's ridiculous, but I can't laugh.

I thought, if I were Norma, I must be very happy, why bother, why bother?
When you are old, do old things.

You have been brilliant before, and that is enough.

The premise of your mental breakdown is that you have never been brilliant before, and you can be forgiven.

It has been unknown before, and I am still looking forward to it, but the status quo will force you to withdraw from the stage of history, you will fall into pain, and you will talk about suffering, but

it is not worthy of sympathy if you want to (permanent fame and fortune, not to be forgotten).

How can one get rid of this pain?
Do you want to accept the reality and retire quietly, or
do you want to conform to the trend of the times, change and innovate, and then you can become popular again.
You are old-fashioned, always the same for 100 years, and you will definitely be eliminated.

A comeback is not everyone's luck.
It is still necessary to have the name of self-knowledge.

Therefore, when a person's artistic life is very long,
we all respect and admire, and we
call it good luck in private, which is indeed good luck.

    9/10. Norma buys a high-end coat to win favor, zooms in and zooms out to capture Joe's emotional changes: disgusted to accepting advice from a salesman, his values ​​are shaken; the grassroots circle of innocent people in a friend's apartment celebrating and self-deprecating, and the claustrophobic environment of Norma's costume in the hall Forming a spatial opposition, the cigarette holder/inspector burying the pet orangutan symbolizes morbid escape and spiritual control in life, and the descending diagonal of the spiral staircase is the resistance to Joe's return to freedom.

    Fame makes and destroys a person. The gloomy and insane mood in the story is just right for black and white films. The heroine's first husband stayed by her side as a housekeeper and witnessed the whole process of her motives for keeping the little white face. It's a pity that the subtitles are too scumbag, and Billy Wilder's subtle lines have not been carefully understood.

Sunset Blvd. quotes

  • Joe Gillis (as narrator): I had landed myself in the driveway of some big mansion that looked run down and deserted.

  • Joe Gillis (as narrator): It was a great big white elephant of a place. The kind crazy movie people built in the crazy 20s. A neglected house gets an unhappy look. This one had it in spades. It was like that old woman in "Great Expectations". That Miss Havisham in her rotting wedding dress and her torn veil, taking it out on the world, because she'd been given the go-by.
