About this listen

Mr Punch Presents: Sunset Boulevard, nominated for 11 Academy Awards, Billy Wilder’s brilliant 1950 film is about the flamboyant silent-movie star Norma Desmond played by Gloria Swanson and her pitiful attempt to stage a comeback to the silver screen through her friendship with a young, opportunistic screenwriter, played by William Holden. Re-created for the radio with the original stars in this special radio production.

Hollywood Playhouse is a collection of Oscar-winning films adapted for the radio and performed by many of the original film stars in front of a live studio audience.

This programme has been remastered and re-edited from the original radio broadcast.
