Billy Wilder's caustic tale of Hollywood, obsession and murder, in which a fading star of silent pictures tries to recreate her fame, is back in its full dark glory.
In 1950, Billy Wilder directed "Sunset Boulevard," his caustic tale of Hollywood, obsession and murder, in which a fading star of silent pictures tries to recreate her fame. Correspondent Tracy Smith talks with actress Nancy Olson about co-starring in the noir classic opposite Gloria Swanson and William Holden. Smith also sits down with Andrew Lloyd Webber, composer of the stage musical adapted from the film; and with Nicole Scherzinger, who won a Tony for the recent Broadway revival playing the femme fatale Norma Desmond.
