🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a classic whodunit, relying on the gradual unveiling of each suspect's character, where everyone possesses both an alibi and a hidden motive. It explores the glittering yet hollow world of fame through flashbacks that paint the victim not as a mere icon, but as a deeply flawed, complex individual.
What lingers after the final reveal is not just the identity of the killer, but a poignant study of envy, obsession, and the masks people wear in high society. The resolution feels earned, focusing on the 'why' as much as the 'who'. — MovieFinder Editorial
