Plot Summary: The story, set in '50s Hollywood, focuses on Norma Desmond, a silent-screen goddess whose pathetic belief in her own indestructibility has turned her into a demented recluse. The crumbling Sunset Boulevard mansion where she lives with only her butler, Max who was once her director and husband has become her self-contained world. Norma dreams of a comeback to pictures and she begins a relationship with Joe Gillis, a small-time writer who becomes her lover, that will soon end with murder and total madness.

Pulling out one of my own tz talkbacks for Paramount's 100th anniversary, since Dalek's already done Chinatown on here, he has dibs on the Indy movies, Love Story sucks, and I still need to watch Wings.
