Sunset Boulevard

When I started watching this movie I didn't know what I was getting into. The IMDB poster showed a woman looking weird. 

So when I finally watched one of the thoughts that hit me was the problems that existed in 1950, when the film was made, are still the same problems we struggle with.

For example we have a writer and he is afraid he is not able to write anything original. If he felt that way in 1950 think about the state of writers now.

We always thought, at least I thought, fame is something which exists in present. We do not imagine that every time had their own famous people or celebrities of that period. And all those celebrities felt the same way. Or we as human beings feel the same whether it is 1950 or 2025.

Human emotions has not changed, we long for love, we long to be celebrated and above all in our mind we are always young. The mind does not age at the same speed of body. I do not know if it catches up over a period.

It is a depressing movie and such a movie being celebrated even during that time shows the audiences were also mature.
