| Notes : RARE 1st release 1959 Italian locandina. Marilyn Monroe wanted the film to be shot in color (her contract stipulated that all her films were to be in color), but Billy Wilder convinced her to let it be shot in black and white when costume tests revealed that the makeup that Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon wore gave their faces a green tinge. |

| Notes : Original Italian re-release (late 60's poster from 1967 onwards). TRIVIA: Marilyn Monroe required 47 takes to get 'It's me, Sugar' correct, instead saying either 'Sugar, it's me' or 'It's Sugar, me'. After take 30, Billy Wilder had the line written on a blackboard. Another scene required Monroe to rummage through some drawers and say 'Where's the bourbon?' After 40 takes of her saying 'Where's the whiskey?', 'Where's the bottle?', or 'Where's the bonbon?', Wilder pasted the correct line in one of the drawers. After Monroe became confused about which drawer contained the line, Wilder had it pasted in every drawer. Fifty-nine takes were required for this scene and when she finally does say it, she has her back to the camera, leading some to wonder if Wilder finally gave up and had it dubbed. |

Joe Gillis is floating face down in a swimming pool as the homicide squad arrives. As narrator Joe takes us back six months when, unable to sell a script or borrow from anyone, he pulled into 10086 Sunset Boulevard to hide from men who wanted to repossess his car. The owner of the mansion is Norma Desmond, faded star of the silent era. Under the illusion that millions of fans still adore her, Norma is planning a comeback playing the lead in her own screenplay 'Salome'. When she finds out Joe is a writer she wants him to help her with the script. He moves in, becoming a kept man and the object of her obsessive affection. Meantime Joe several times runs into Betty, the script reader who originally rejected his efforts and would now like to collaborate with him. Norma, now jealous as well as possessive and ambitious, receives a call from Paramount which she believes will soon having her working again with C.B. DeMille. The studio only wants the loan of her leopard upholstered Isotta-Fraschini touring car. When Joe walks out on her she fires a pistol at him as he walks toward the pool and we are back where we came in. Norma must face the (newsreel) cameras one last time.
