Join us at the Lincoln Theatre for our November Film Series: The third annual Noirvember!
November 19: Sunset Boulevard
One of the biggest stars of the silent era, Gloria Swanson, returns to the screen to portray Norma Desmond -- a star of the silent era looking to make a triumphant comeback! When screenwriter Joe Gillis (William Holden) ends up staying at her mansion by chance, she draws him into her plan and into her life -- even as Gilles increasingly bristles under her suffocating prescence.
"Billy Wilder’s chillingly cold-blooded satire of Hollywood is one of his finest films — and indeed arguably one of the greatest movies of the period." —Weny Ide, Times UK
"It is Hollywood craftsmanship at its smartest and at just about its best, and it is hard to find better craftsmanship than that, at this time, in any art or country." —James Agee, Sight & Sound
