“★★★★★ –  Hollywood never looked more glorious or more tragic” – Guardian.


Arriving in a new 4K restoration, Billy Wilder's iconic black comedy about delusional silent film star Norma Desmond (Swanson) facing the talkies era in Hollywood returns to the screen for its 75th anniversary.


Gloria Swanson shines as Desmond, capturing the tragedy and comedy of her delusions of fame, grandeur, and relevance – delusions which are fed by ex-Hollywood director turned devoted butler, Max von Mayerling (von Stroheim). The satirising of Hollywood and a culture obsessed with fame remains prescient 75 years on after the film first premiered.
