About
A struggling screenwriter takes refuge at the mansion of a forgotten silent film star, who asks him to help with her comeback screenplay.
Joe Gillis (William Holden) is a struggling screenwriter with money problems. While fleeing repo men who want his car, he ends up at a mansion on Sunset Boulevard. It belongs to Norma Desmond (Gloria Swanson), a former silent film star. Learning that Joe is a writer, Norma asks him to help with a screenplay she has written, a film about Salome that she believes will bring her back to the screen. Erich von Stroheim plays Max von Mayerling, her butler. Nancy Olson appears as Betty Schaefer, a Paramount script reader who criticizes a story Joe has submitted.
