"Sunset Boulevard" and Norma Desmond

This movie is absolutely haunting. The dialogue is magnificent. It works as both a moving drama and a semi-black comedy look at the fragility of fame and the lure of the movie industry. Billy Wilder’s direction and screenplay are brilliant. I could watch it over and over again. And I have.
