Zusammenfassung
Twilight (1998), directed by Robert Benton, is a neo-noir mystery thriller centered around an aging private detective, Harry Ross. The film is set in Hollywood, exploring the faded glamour of its main characters—rich actor Jack Ames and his actress wife Catherine Sarandon—who employ Ross as part of their household staff. The story unfolds as Ross becomes entangled in a cold case involving Catherine's former husband, who disappeared two decades prior. The narrative weaves together themes of love, betrayal, and the destructive power of secrets, culminating in a gripping climax that blurs the lines between justice and revenge.
