as if we never said goodbye

This is still quite touching

AS IF WE NEVER SAID GOODBYE Glenn Close
From Sunset Boulevard

I don\'t know why I\'m frightened
I know my way around here
The cardboard trees, the painted sea, the sound here
Yes, a world to rediscover
But I\'m not in any hurry, and I need a moment

The whispered conversations in overcrowded hallways
The atmosphere as thrilling here as always
Feel, the early morning madness
Feel, the magic in the making
Why, everything\'s as if we never said goodbye

I\'ve spent so many morning just trying to resist you
I\'m trembling now you can\'t know how I\'ve missed you
In the ever-spinning playground
We were young together

I\'m coming out of make-up
The lights already burning
Not long until the camera will start turning
And the early morning madness
And the magic in the making
Yes, everything\'s as if we never said goodbye

I don\'t want to be alone that\'s all in the past
This world\'s waited long enough I\'ve come home at last
And this time will ne nigger and brighter than we knew it
So watch me fly we all know I can do it
Could I stop my hands from shaking?
Has there ever been a moment with so much to live for?

The whispered conversations in overcrowded hallways
So much to say not just today but always
We\'ll have early morning madness
We\'ll have magic in the making
Yes, everything\'s as if we never said goodbye
Yes, everything\'s as if we never said goodbye
We taught the world new ways to dream

    The colorful passage of the whole film is the moment when Norma sits on the set and the lighting engineer turns on the spotlight to shine on her: in an instant she returns to the peak of life's splendor. Classic Hollywood movies actually have two tasks. One is to tell a dripping story according to the established three-act play structure, and the other is to insert flashes of talent in the film that may have nothing to do with the film itself. After completing the first task, the film can be successfully handed over; after completing the second task, the film has entered a great classic series. This is why Billy Wilder, Howard Hawkes, and Ilya Kazan have all become masters, because each of their films has shining points that cannot be replicated. Other directors have racked their brains and can't think of one for a lifetime.

    No matter who is pushed to a certain level, it will always explode

Sunset Blvd. quotes

  • Joe Gillis (as narrator): [Joe is reading Norma's script] Sometimes it's interesting to see just how bad - bad writing can be. This promised to go the limit.

  • Max Von Mayerling: There were three young directors who showed promise in those days: D. W. Griffith, Cecil B. DeMille, and Max Von Mayerling.

    Joe Gillis: And she's turned you into a servant.

    Max Von Mayerling: It was I who asked to come back, as humiliating as it may seem. I could have continued my career; only I found everything unendurable after she'd left me. You see, I was her first husband.
