"All right, Mr. De Mille, I'm ready for my closeup." Billy Wilder pissed off the Hollywood establishment with this dark view of their world, and it still ranks as the most powerful portrayal about Hollywood. The loaded special edition DVD includes featurettes about the music and costume designer Edith Head, a documentary on the making of the film, and commentary by Ed Sikov, author of On Sunset Boulevard: The Life and Times of Billy Wilder.
