(Following written by Mal Vincent) The ultimate inside-Hollywood drama with Norma Desmond (the former silent screen star played by Gloria Swanson) ready for her close-up. “I AM big,” she tells us. “It’s the pictures that got small.” Directed by Billy Wilder,the film is the ultimate classic about fame, the loss of fame and the loneliness that results. It features Academy Award-nominated performances from Gloria Swanson, William Holden, and Nancy Olson.  (1950, 110 minutes)
