This film was nominated for Best Motion Picture (1950) against “All About Eve.” It’s no surprise that the latter took the Oscar considering the commentary the film makes about Hollywood. Both films are worthy, but my choice would have been “Sunset Blvd.”

This film is specially fun to watch if you live or are very familiar with Hollywood, West Hollywood or the Hancock Park area, as there are many scenes that will give you a glimpse at what these looked like fifty-six years ago.
