Sinopsis :
He is Robert Vane - the greatest actor of the English theater in a generation, dashing, handsome, clearly touched by genius.
She is Felicia Lisle - the most glamorous, beauriful and romantic of actresses, his partner onstage, his lover in life, whose career suddenly brings her new fame and an Oscar as she stars in Hollywood's most successful movie.
Together they are the greatest theater coupleof the age, their romance, onstage and off, captivating the world for nearly twenty years. But their public performances express their love and desire for each other better than they ever can in private. For behind the scenes, their lives are full of dangerous secrets and broken promises. At the moment of her greatest triumph, Felicia Lisle is overcome by her own fears and by the horrors of a past she knows she cannot keep hidden forever.
And Robert Vane, driven by his enormous ambition and haunted by the fear that he has failed to give Felicia the love she needs and demands, plunges into a close friendship with Randy Brooks, America's most beloved comedian, and into a fatal business relationship with Marty Quick, showman, vulgarian, and full-time womanizer.
Ulasan :
Nerves bagi aku masalah yang bukan main-main. Dalam cerita Agatha Christie banyak ditimbulkan bila penyakit ni menyerang. Aku rasa faktor umur buat Felicia tak stabil. Ditambah pulak dia perempuan. Aku perhati dia tak perlukan kawan (perempuan) dalam hidup dia. Mungkin sebab tu aku suka dengan watak dia.
Bukan senang nak jadi popular (gitu). Anak dia sendiri tak suka pada dia. Pakcik pun tak guna. Ayah sendiri pun tak boleh harap. Jadi, kebergantungan dia dengan Robby tu perlu bagi dia walaupun dia lebih popular dari Robby.
Tersentuh jugak bila Robby still masih sayangkan dia walaupun dia dah membunuh Marty. Aku faham kenapa watak Robby.
Aku bagi 4🌟/ 5
