Reviews
"Sunset Boulevard belongs in the Hollywood pantheon, alongside such classics as Chinatown and The Wizard of Oz , both of which have deservedly received their own "biographies." Now David Lubin gives Sunset its due with this fast-paced journey through the making of the movie, sprinkling his well-researched tale with rich nuggets about the Golden Age. Anyone who admires Billy Wilder, adores William Holden and is mesmerized by Gloria Swanson will hunger for more." -- Stephen Galloway, New York Times bestselling author of Truly, Madly, "Paints a complex portrait of both the film and the industry it takes to task. This shines."-- Publishers Weekly, "David Lubin's exhaustively researched and fluently written anatomy of Sunset Boulevard, Billy Wilder's classic about 'the pathology of fame' (Lubin's phrase), is an example of the 'behind-the-scenes' genre at its best."-- Peter Biskind, author of Easy Riders, Raging Bulls, "An intimate dance with a disturbing movie--a close-up of the despair, humiliation, and brilliance that make up a work of art. Whether a painting by Rembrandt, a sonata of Mozart, or a novel of Hemingway, few creations have received the beautiful star treatment David Lubin accords to Sunset Boulevard ."-- Alexander Nemerov, author of Fierce Poise: Helen Frankenthaler and 1950s America
Synopsis
For readers of Sam Wasson and Glenn Frankel, a cultural history about the making and lasting significance of Sunset Boulevard , whose piercing--and in many ways, prophetic--critiques of fame continue to resonate today. Great films are born of great collaborations, and Sunset Boulevard represents one of the most extraordinary confluences of cinematic talent in film history--but its production was surprisingly fraught, filled with unexpected twists. Why was William Holden, who had never caught fire as a leading man, hired to play Joe Gillis after the fastestrising star in the business dropped out at the last minute? After Mae West and Mary Pickford turned down the now iconic role of Norma Desmond, how did Billy Wilder convince Gloria Swanson, who had long been absent from Hollywood at this point, to leave her lowpaying job as a TV talk show host to join the cast? From the writers' room during Billy Wilder and Charles Brackett's final collaboration to the moment when the film won three Academy Awards, scholar and former Rolling Stone staffer David M. Lubin takes readers on a fascinating journey through film history that proves, once and for all, why Sunset Boulevard is one of the most iconic films in cinematic history. Just in time for the film's 75th anniversary, Ready for My Closeup breathes life into a beloved masterpiece of American cinema., For readers of Sam Wasson and Glenn Frankel, a cultural history about the making and lasting significance of Sunset Boulevard , whose piercing--and in many ways, prophetic--critiques of fame continue to resonate today.
