Dickson Hughes and Richard Stapley, two young songwriters and romantic partners, find themselves caught in movie star Gloria Swanson's web when she hires them to write a musical version of "Sunset Boulevard." Life imitates art when Gloria falls for Richard, and the men find themselves living a real-life version of the classic film.

The result is a film that far transcends the trivial pursuit at its center to provide an empathetic contemplation of life, love, growing old, and rising above our failures.

The Indiependent

This is about more than an ultimately unrealised dream. Boulevard! is about the importance of charade, self-worth and identity in an era where they can be ripped up from underneath you.

Rated: 4 / 5
