60 of 234 · most liked firstTonight's 🎥: Sunset Boulevard (1950, dir. Billy Wilder). The best film about films ever made? Undoubtedly. One of the all-time great movies, stuffed with an embarrassment of riches, from the writing to performances to production design, cinematography and direction. Savage, melancholy, brilliant.
positive · AI labelView post →Happy 98th Birthday to the lovely Nancy Olson, talented Oscar-nominated actress of film, stage, and TV, as well as the last surviving cast member of SUNSET BOULEVARD (1950). She was #BOTD on 7/14/1928.
neutral · AI labelView post →Donald Trump’s favourite movie is Sunset Boulevard. That movie tells the story of an aging silent film star, Norma Desmond, who has locked herself away from the real world so that she can endlessly replay past glories until she loses her mind entirely.

neutral · AI labelView post →Hours before the Oscars took place, movie posters mocking President Donald Trump and condemning the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran appeared across Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles. Activist group Everyone Hates Elon plastered the images across the city.
neutral · AI labelView post →Sunset Boulevard still feels like a dream no matter how many times you watch- a surreal fever dream about the death of silent film & the industry that left it behind. It clearly inspired Lynch's Mulholland Drive, & in retrospect the 2 feel like a conversation across decades about Hollywood #filmsky

neutral · AI labelView post →I read this morning that Sunset Boulevard is one of Donald Trump's favourite movies. Strange, I thought, as it seems like a film about a person who was a moving-picture star and becomes isolated from reality and unable to form real relationships. What is he seeing there? So I rewatched this evening.
neutral · AI labelView post →I worked at Paramount once, and had the oddest sensation. I saw a screening on the lot of "Sunset Boulevard" for a friend's birthday, sitting in the SAME screening room that Gloria Swanson watches a movie projected in within the film. Very weirdly meta. #SunsetBoulevard #SummerOfDarkness #TCMParty
neutral · AI labelView post →It wouldn't be proper to ignore Norma Desmond on this or any day! Gloria Swanson, BOTD 3/27/1899. From silent film superstar to SUNSET BOULEVARD (1950) & beyond, Swanson was, is, & always will be film legend. #filmsky 📽
neutral · AI labelView post →My ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review of SUNSET BOULEVARD boxd.it/cFmImf 🎶He had it coming. He had it coming. He only had himself to blame!🎶 Perfect film? Essential noir works as scathing Hollywood satire & compelling psychosexual drama. Swanson walks tightrope between ridiculous & heartbreaking; triumphs. #filmsky 📽
positive · AI labelView post →My favorite movie is Sunset Boulevard because I dream of finding a rich MILF so terminally down bad for me that she kills me
positive · AI labelView post →@mrsemilyfinch.bsky.social and I have gotten a little bit into watching old noir movies lately. Watched Sunset Boulevard tonight. Holy cow. Great movie. Norma has to be one of the most insane characters ever put on film. What other noir suggestions do y’all have?

neutral · AI labelView post →SUNSET BOULEVARD premiered #OTD in 1950. You might think Paramount would stream one of its most iconic films on Paramount+ for the 75th anniversary, but you'd be wrong. It's on MGM+. I wish Billy Wilder was still around to make a movie about the streaming shell game. #FilmSky #SunsetBoulevard
neutral · AI labelView post →What a phenomenal week it's been. Watched Sunset Boulevard, The Passion of Joan of Arc, Vampyr, and In the Mood for Love, loved every single one. The Passion of Joan of Arc might just be my favorite film of all time. #lastfourwatched #letterboxdfriday #letterboxd #filmsky #films #movies 📽️🍿

unlabelledView post →All right, folks. Sunset Boulevard is a fabulous film but it's not an example of "first person past tense narrator dies in the end" The movie tells you right up front that it's the dead man's story, plus "first person" in the context of film is more or less nonsensical. I mean, I love you all, just.

unlabelledView post →REVIEW / Sunset Boulevard (1950). *Sunset Boulevard*, 10/10 Billy Wilder's *Sunset Boulevard* is a masterpiece of black comedy and savage Hollywood critique, a film so dark and so funny that it becomes something singular. Everything about it is wonderful: the performances, the direction, the audacity of its premise, the cruelty of its vision. It's a film about delusion and exploitation, about an industry that devours its own, and it tells that story with a viciousness that never stops being…
unlabelledView post →the screening of Sunset Boulevard that I attended on Monday was the film being shown on film, which for the most part was really cool, but during the New Years eve scene, some of the film had been damaged, and at one point it just abruptly jumped to Norma saying "PUMPING AND PUMPING" with no context

Year 2, Day #318 "Sunset Boulevard" (Billy Wilder/1950) All right, Mr. DeMille, I'm ready for my close-up. Classic line from a film that, unsurprisingly, I have not watched yet. Hopefully I will get to this one soon.
