But why is it called "Comet Beauty"?

It's one of my favorite movies I've seen recently.

The story is well told, and the way of telling the story is also very good. Although the plot is inevitably old-fashioned, it seems that it has been abused by the current palace fighting dramas and workplace dramas, but they are movies from the 1950s, and they can be called the originator of the scheming bitch. Come on!

That's not the reason I like it, it's that I really like the pair of Margaux and Bill, and then Margaux's every move, every word and deed in life feels very realistic, especially the words that he said to Helen in the car. It's meaningful! As a woman, actor, age is really the biggest enemy! It happened that she also had a sister-in-law relationship, how could she not be hysterical, how could she not make trouble unreasonably. So I think the character design and performance are very good. And Bill really is a good man. From the birthday party, I felt a bit obsessed, and then the audition was considered the climax of the conflict between the two. Bill couldn't bear it anymore and said byebye to Margot, but the real good show is when the scheming bitch finally shows his true colors. To seduce him, he completely held it, but returned to Margaux instead. At first I also wondered if he decided to marry Margo in order to resist the temptation of a scheming bitch, but after careful analysis, I thought it was because of true love. Hahaha. So I especially like them both. In comparison, Roy seemed a little unclear.

Of course, this film tells us that scheming bitches want to be in the top position, it is not enough to rely on scheming alone, and it is necessary to have strength.

Finally, Monroe is simply amazing in it, yes, it's beauty, not acting.

    Three women in one play, the film earnestly tells a small story that explores the essence of human nature, excavating true friendship and the warmth of the characters' hearts.

    Following all the award-winning and nominated Oscar Best Animated Feature Films and the previous Oscar Best Animated Short Films, I have finally watched all the 91 Oscar Best Films as of 2018! Comet Beauty still holds the record for the most Oscar nominations: 14 nominations, 6 wins; Titanic: 14 nominations, 11 wins; La La Land: 14 nominations, 6 Award-winning! —— Knowing the person and knowing the face but not the heart, I never imagined that this would turn out to be a story about how a scheming bitch became famous. The final ending is very well set. The two groups of people who love each other never leave and stick to each other, while the person who is full of lies and those who know the truth are still entangled. At the award ceremony full of hypocrisy, she knows him well, but But no one is going to expose the mask of hypocrisy. Arrange a "Eve Second" ending (you can see the existence of countless "Eve Second" through the mirror), um, it's really unfathomable human nature!
