4.0 out of 5 stars A oldie but a goody, Jan 7 2011

This review is from: Sunset Boulevard (DVD)

A classic. If you ever heard the line " I'm ready for my close up Mr. Deville" and wondered what it meant or where it came from. It's the famous line said in this movie.

5.0 out of 5 stars SWANSON SHOULD HAVE WON THE ACADEMY AWARD, July 16 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Sunset Boulevard (DVD)

Swanson deserved the Academy Award for this picture. The ending shot alone shows this.

A superb film all the way around except for the casting of Nancy Olson. Inexplicably, Olson won a supporting actress nomination from the academy that year, but I fail to see why. Her character gets on my nerves, especially making goo eyes at William Holden. But this is just a little quirk I have.

The film succeeds brilliantly mainly because of Swanson. It has an effecting score, great cinematography and great acting from the principle characters (Olson notwithstanding).

You will not be disappointed with this one!

(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Sunset Boulevard (DVD)

While widescreen films date back as early as 1930 (The Bat Whispers), Sunset Boulvard is not a widescreen DVD because Sunset Boulevard is not a widescreen film.

5.0 out of 5 stars I'm shocked it didn't win Best Picture
Sunset Blvd. is often overlooked as first-tier Hollywood filmmaking in light of other classics such as Citizen Kane, Casablanca or It's a Wonderful Life. Read more
