Movie: Sunset Boulevard (1950)



Claps:

• The narrative style employed.
• Gloria Swanson’s show as the insanely self-obsessive actress Norma Desmond.
• The elegance of Holden as the failed script-writer Joe Gillis & the supporting role of Max.

Blips:

• Gillis gets into Norma’s house easily, so easily even for an accident.
• The film is a bit over-dramatic - as much as its lead role player Norma is.

Overall Score – 9.1/10
