Sunset Boulevard (musical)/Trivia

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Actor Allusion: Glenn Close portrays a lonely troubled woman slowly driven to insanity due to her unhealthy obsession with a man, eventually she's pushed over the edge and goes on a murderous rampage... But enough about Alex Forrest in Fatal Attraction.
  • What Could Have Been: Stephen Sondheim began work on a musical version, before the release of Andrew Lloyd Webber's play. He abandoned the project due to Billy Wilder saying that he'd prefer a Sunset Boulevard opera to a musical.
