    2011.6.11. 18:30 Cathay Pacific. A warning record for young literary and artistic youths eating soft food/Brain fills the queen’s dream life/The story that the queen’s attack and the loyal dog have to tell/How to use metaphysical pursuit to make soft sisters...Mr. Wilder, you are a genius!

    paranoid...Norma's face always looking up at a 45-degree angle but still looking at you horizontally is really terrifying and shuddering in the...

    No wonder David Lynch likes it, how terrible and dark this movie is actually. They are all people who are greedy for fame. One goes crazy and the other goes corrupt, which is too embarrassing. What's more, the heroine was a silent film star of the year, and she performed very well; the filmmakers who appeared in it were really directors. Hollywood tells Hollywood's own stories, and the feeling of powerlessness is...

    It turns out that Billy Wilder wrote 66 years ago: "'Don't you hate yourself sometimes?" I often hate myself.'" Such a deafening...

    I have always thought that the country should be remaked and I asked Liu Xiaoqing to play Norma. Everyone was so...

    Beauty has been like a good general since ancient times, white heads are not allowed in the world, let alone a superstar plated with gold powder. The whole film is in an inexplicable and strange atmosphere. Gloria Swanson is so enchanting, the saying that Stars are ageless is...

    This film is powerful and sad, the kind of sadness that has no choice to prevent the tragedy from happening. I like the narration of the dead, I like the omnipotent butler, Turn that light back where it belongs, and Billy White's lines are great every time. Looking at station B, the barrage made me feel that everyone is very mean to older women. When any relationship between men and women with a huge age difference appears, when women are older, everyone will talk a lot of...

    The house number turned out to be 10086 on Sunset Boulevard! I have seen my favorite Wilder so far. The story is so solid, even if the answer to the mystery is revealed long ago, it doesn't matter. A movie about movies that are all movies. Those frustrated, outdated and crazy people are illuminated by "rare sympathy" and become heroes in the dark. The wonderful ending is like a play in a play, but she still calls the person who loves her by someone else's...

    Watching EE-2D9 with reverence, I am sure that I really don't belong to the black class, and I won't watch noir films anymore. At the same time, I admire those who think film noir is very good and...

    Billy Wilder's masterpiece, classic film noir. The criticism and ridicule of Hollywood itself is similar to "Song in the Rain", but the film is dark and sad, and the latter is bright and joyous. David Lynch pays tribute to this film many times in his masterpiece "Mulholland Road". The film's photography (especially the opening and ending), lines, and makeup are excellent. But I do not agree with the heroine's indulging in the past and refusing to look forward....

    Billy Wilder's Bad Taste

    When I heard the title, I thought it would be a romantic film, but it was not. How should I say it? Let's start from the beginning. The body of a young man was found in the swimming pool of a big mansion. The police and the media rushed to... .Then the plot rewinds to six months ago, a young...

    Fat British Butler

    Marx is the steward of Norma.
    After watching the movie, I realized that Marx was actually the director who discovered Norma, became famous with her, and became her first husband, but in the end, he accompanied her as a housekeeper.
    Marx and Norma guarded the old villa on Sunset Boulevard,...

Sunset Blvd. quotes

  • Norma Desmond: You must forgive me for calling you so late, but I really feel it's my duty. It's about Mr. Gillis. You do know Mr. Gillis? Exactly how much do you know about him? Do you know where he lives? Do you know how he lives? Do you know what he lives on?

    Betty Schaefer: Who are you? What do you want? What business is it of yours anyway?

    Norma Desmond: Miss Schaefer, I'm trying to do you a favor. I'm trying to spare you a great deal of misery. Of course you may be too young to even suspect there are men of his sort. I don't know what he's told you, but he does not live with relatives. Nor with friends in the usual sense of the word. Well, ask him. Ask him again.

    Joe Gillis: [grabbing the phone from Norma] That's right, Betty. Ask me again. This is Joe.

    Betty Schaefer: Joe, where are you? What is this all about?

    Joe Gillis: Well, better yet, why don't you come out and see for yourself? The address is 10086 Sunset Boulevard.

  • Joe Gillis: Thanks for letting me wear the handsome wardrobe, and thanks for the use of all the trinkets. The rest of the jewelry's in the top drawer.

    Norma Desmond: [desperate] It's yours, Joe. I gave it to you.

    Joe Gillis: And I'd take it in a second, only it's a little too dressy for sitting behind a copy desk in Dayton, Ohio.
