Review of Sunset Boulevard (1950) by Georgieboy M — 29 Aug 2011

Wilder always are there to amaze us, and here the story is nostalgic and brutal. Faded star that lives in her fantasy world just with her chauffeur, maybe the most interesting character. This movie is great not only because it's a critic to that, in some ways naive, era that used to be represented by the silent films but the use of characters represents the history itself, faded and solitary stars condemned to oblivion and wanting to make his big come back, hungry writers that has lose the joy of write and just make scripts for not dying of starvation.
