| A unique classic This is an excellent DVD with supurb picture quality and good sound reproduction. The part of Norma Desmond could have been written for Gloria Swanson and she gives a truly remarkable performance. By a reviewer (London)  This review is for a different format. |
| Excellent Movie I first saw this movie when I was 12 years old and would rent it from time to time. I love it and think it is time to put it in my library of movies. By candybe (Denver, CO) This review is for a different format. |
| Wilder's Masterpiece. After the Academy Award-winning "The Lost Weekend", released in 1945, Billy Wilder and his collaborator Charles Brackett held such exalted positions at Paramount that they were able to begin production on a film without giving the studio a copy of the script. By filmfactsman (Beverly Hills, CA, USA) This review is for a different format. |
