## Description

Gloria Swanson gives a career-defining performance as faded silent screen star Norma Desmond in director Billy Wilder's dark and masterful film classic, "Sunset Boulevard." William Holden is Joe Gillis, the young, down-on-his-luck screenwriter whom Norma drafts to help provide her with a workable script for her planned "return" to the modern-day screen. Erich von Stroheim is Max von Mayerling, Norma's devoted servant and chauffeur, who harbors a few personal revelations of his own. Hollywood has never taken a more ominous, compelling or electrifying look at Hollywood than in this brilliant, Oscar®-winning tour de force that still mesmerizes with it's witty, sardonic script, unforgettable cast, and provocative storyline. The exceptional cast also includes Nancy Olson, Fred Clark, Lloyd Gough, Jack Webb and - as themselves - Cecil B. DeMille, Hedda Hopper, Buster Keaton, Anna Q. Nilsson and H.B. Warner. (English), Gloria Swanson, as Norma Desmond, an aging silent-film queen, and William Holden, as the struggling young screenwriter who is held in thrall by her madness, created two of the screen's most memorable characters in "Sunset Boulevard." Winner of three Academy Awards®, director Billy Wilder's powerful orchestration of the bizarre tale is a true cinematic classic. From the unforgettable opening sequence - a body found floating in a decayed mansion's swimming pool - through the inevitable unfolding of tragic destiny, "Sunset Boulevard" is the definitive statement on the dark and desperate side of Hollywood. Erich von Stroheim as Desmond's discoverer, ex-husband and butler, and Nancy Olson as the bright spot amidst unrelenting ominousness, are equally celebrated for their masterful performances.

Review: "We didn't need dialogue. We had faces!" - Part film noir, part gothic horror, and final parts razor-sharp black comedy satire on Hollywood and you end up with one of the most unique and iconic films ever made. Much of cast is essentially playing themselves either literally or figuratively with a little (or larger) wink and a nod. From the same director / co-writer Billy Wilder who did films ranging from the likes of "Double Indemnity" to "Some Like it Hot" to "The Apartment" he always managed to push boundaries both with different subject matter as well as with the censors. Wilder's scathing takes on Hollywood's deepest darkest places and the soul crushing lack of humanity in that industry ended up still being positively acknowledged in its day by the movie critics and community albeit with some blowback from certain Hollywood bigwigs. And we the movie audience can reap all the rewards. The last line of the film uttered by Norma Desmond is so iconic it has become part of movie history along with other Wilder great last lines including "Shut up and deal" and "Well, nobody's perfect". This very fine Paramount Blu-ray restoration presents a dupe negative rescanned at 4K. Grain is light and tight with some great greyscale and blacks on the night scenes and interiors. Detail is solid with no real film damage or noise present. The mono Dolby TrueHD soundtrack is clear and solid with good fidelity and resonance. There are some two-dozen entertaining featurettes on various aspects of the film, actors, etc. and a solid film commentary. This is a must own for any serious collection and just a great film in general to experience at least once if not many, many times.
