If you loved Ace in the Hole, try Sunset Boulevard

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Billy Wilder, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Ace in the Hole, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Sunset Boulevard is

A deserted mansion on Sunset Boulevard, autumn leaves blowing, a faded starlet's pool. A faded actress and a young screenwriter form a complicated bond over a potential comeback script. Wilder's lens frames a bleak Hollywood underbelly.
