Sunset Boulevard

This film reminded me of Ozymandias, the famous sonnet by Percy Shelley, specifically this part: *My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings; Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair! Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away.* Sunset Boulevard is a haunting film about being forgotten, about the sunset of a life. The empathy i felt towards Norma made me cry, the whole film i was like "poor woman". It's important for me to mention too, that my biggest fear is being forgotten, so i related to her, plus I'm a Scorpio. The idea of dying and no one remembering you is terrifying to me, imagine being forgotten while being alive, witnessing your downfall. Just, devastating. In some parts it reminded me of Pearl (2022), specifically the parts where she goes psycho, anyways Sunset Boulevard is a total classic.
