Halloween season may be behind us, but the chills dont have to end right away.
Indeed, there has been oneA Star is Bornmovie for almost every new generation of the last century.
On the other hand, theres a reason thatA Star is Bornis so enduring.
Sunset Boulevard / Paramount Pictures
Behind the glossy mansion and glittering makeup is a real human being, haunted by their own success.
Indeed, theyre total, tragic fabrications.
Blonde (2022)
Marilyn, we didnt deserve you.
Hollywood just simply cant get enough of spinning tragedy out of this womans life.
Its no wonder this movie snagged 14 Oscar nominations and won Best Picture.
Hollywood loves exposing its own corruption, as long as it forgives itself immediately afterwards.
Warner Bros.
Sunset Boulevard (1950)
Sunset Boulevardisnt just a portrait of the iconically deluded Norma Desmond.
Its also a condemnation of the enablers, hangers-on, and power-hungry vampires around her.
This Hollywood does not slay.
