Norma proposes Joe to move to the mansion and help her in writing a screenplay for her comeback to the cinema, and the small-time writer becomes her lover and gigolo.
Norma is demented and believes she will return to the cinema industry, and is protected and isolated from the world by Max, who was his director and husband in the past and still loves her.
He meets the owner and former silent-movie star Norma Desmond, who lives alone wit her butler and driver Max von Mayerling. While trying to escape from his creditors, he has a flat tire and parks his car in a decadent mansion in Sunset Boulevard. In Hollywood of the 50’s, the obscure screenplay writer Joe Gillis is not able to sell his work to the studios, is full of debts and is thinking in returning to his hometown to work in an office.
