    A Documentary About Nothing

    Gloria Swanson is likely best known for the great film noir "Sunset Blvd." from the '50's.

    This documentary purports to be an account on a failed musical that Swanson wanted to do based on the movie (way before Andrew Lloyd Weber).

    However, what it really amounts to is a re-hash of the original movie and some asides about Swanson's life.

    The documentary is so thin and unoriginal that it practically plays clips of the ENTIRE Sunset Blvd movie, for heaven's sake!

    This musical a less than minor footnote on her career. And who cares? No one. In fact, no one has ever heard of the two "collaborators" on this effort, as the documentary admits!
