Sunset Boulevard (1950)
Location: Home (DVD)
Seen Before: Yes
Rating: 5.0
So this marks the first film this year that I've watched twice, and what a film it is I have chosen.
This time around I was really taken with Gloria Swanson's performance. It's easy to forget that she wasn't Norma Desmond, despite their similarities. Swanson is said to have been a pleasant, hard-working individual--unlike the actress she portrays onscreen; it makes the performance that much more enjoyable and awe-inducing.
