SUNSET BOULEVARD (12A) 1h 50m

Dir: Billy Wilder

Cast: William Holden, Gloria Swanson, Erich von Stroheim

Genre: Drama, Film Noir

Iconic, darkly comedic, and thrilling, the three-time Oscar-winning Sunset Boulevard returns to the big screen for its 75th anniversary. Fame isn’t forever—just ask Norma Desmond. Once a Hollywood legend, now a forgotten relic, she refuses to fade away. When struggling screenwriter Joe Gillis stumbles into her decaying mansion, he becomes trapped in her web of obsession, control, and delusion. What starts as an opportunity soon spirals into something far more dangerous. Dark, twisted, and eerily relevant, Sunset Boulevard is a haunting look at Hollywood’s unrelenting cycle—where youth is currency, talent is fleeting, and no one stays in the spotlight forever. Are you ready for your close-up?

Now lovingly restored in 4k.
