Show Notes
Jackie and Greg pull into the crumbling mansion of Hollywood’s past for Billy Wilder's SUNSET BLVD. from 1950. Topics of discussion include the film's gothic atmosphere and pulpy narration, which actors came close to playing the lead roles, Gloria Swanson's larger-than-life performance, and how it set the stage for the acidic anti-Hollywood films that would follow in its wake.
