Sunset Boulevard (Popular University of Cinema)
A former silent film star lives, forgotten, in an outdated and sumptuous palace on Sunset Boulevard. When a young screenwriter appears, she asks him to write a script that will allow her to regain her former stardom.
“With an unparalleled power of fascination, this masterpiece by Wilder slowly weaves a disturbing and decaying atmosphere mixing illusion and reality, madness and normality, hatred and love, pathos and ridicule, romanticism and sordid, a moving homage and sharp criticism. A pure tragedy shining with the dark brilliance of a black diamond.” (Guide des films, Éd. Larousse)
