Sunset Boulevard

Sunset Boulevard (Special Collector's Edition)
5 stars
This is a twisted tale of Hollywood's inner workings. Whether you can enjoy it is, I think, debatable. While watching this, my mouth was at times agape due to my discomfort! Former silent movie actress Gloria Swanson completely inhabits her character, delivering a performance you won't soon forget. The ending is bizarrely stunning. This is a fascinating look at old Hollywood. But really, present-day Hollywood seems just the same. Some things don't ever change...
