- NORMA: Joe! Joe!
JOE: Come on in
BETTY: What's going on, Joe?
Why am I so scared?
What was that woman saying?
She sounded so weird
I don't understand
Please, can you tell me what's happening?
You said you loved me tonight
Shall I just go?
Say something, Joe
JOE: Have some pink champagne and caviar
When you go visit with a star
The hospitality is stellar
BETTY: So this is where you're living?
JOE: Yes, it's quite a place, sleeps seventeen
Eight sunken tubs, a movie screen
A bowling alley in the cellar
BETTY: I didn't come to see a house, Joe
JOE: Sunset Boulevard, cruise the Boulevard
Win yourself a Hollywood palazzo
Sunset Boulevard, mythic Boulevard
Valentino danced on that terrazzo
BETTY: Who's it belong to?
JOE: Just look around you
BETTY: That's Norma Desmond
JOE: Right on the money
That's Norma Desmond. That's Norma Desmond
That's Norma Desmond. That's Norma Desmond
BETTY: Why did she call me?
JOE: Give you three guesses
It's the oldest story in the book
Come see the taker being took
The world is full of Joes and Normas
Older woman, very well-to-do
Meets younger man, the standard cue
For two mechanical performers
BETTY: Just pack your things and let's go
JOE: You mean all my things?
Have you gone mad?
Leave all these things I've never had?
Leave this luxurious existence?
You want me to face that one-room hell
That Murphy bed, that rancid smell
Go back to living on subsistence?
It's no time to begin a new life
Now I've finally made a perfect landing
I'm afraid there's no room for a wife
Not unless she's uniquely understanding
You should go back to Artie and marry the fool
And you'll always be welcome to swim in my pool
BETTY: I can't look at you any more, Joe
(BETTY leaves)
NORMA: Thank you. Thank you, Joe! Thank you! Thank you.
What are you doing, Joe? You're not leaving me?
JOE: Yes, I am, Norma
NORMA: You can't! Max!
JOE: It's been a bundle of laughs
And thanks for the use of the trinkets
A little ritzy for the copy desk back in Dayton
And there's something you ought to know
I want to do you this favor
They'll never shoot that hopeless script of yours
They only wanted your car
NORMA: That's a lie! They still want me!
What about all my fan-mail?
JOE: It's Max who writes you letters
Your audience has vanished
They left when you weren't looking
Nothing's wrong with being fifty
Unless you're acting twenty
NORMA: I am the greatest star of them all
JOE: Goodbye, Norma
NORMA: No one ever leaves a star
(NORMA shoots JOE)
REPORTER: And as dawn breaks over the murder house,
Norma Desmond, famed star of yesteryear, is in a state of complete mental shock
NORMA: This was dawn
I don't know why I'm frightened
Silent music starts to play
Happy New Year, darling
If you're with me, next year will be
Next year will be
They bring in his head on a silver tray
She kisses his mouth
She kisses his mouth
Mad about the boy
They'll say Norma's back at last
MAX: Madame, the cameras have arrived
NORMA: Max! Where am I?
MAX: This is the staircase of the palace
And they're waiting for your dance
NORMA: Of course
Now I remember
I was so frightened I might fall
MAX: You are the greatest star of all!
MAX: Lights! Cameras! Action!
NORMA: When he scorned me I knew he'd have to die
Let me kiss his severed head
Compromise or death
He fought to his last death
He never had in him to surrender
Just like me, he never could surrender
NORMA: I can't go on with the scene!
I'm too happy!
May I say a few words, Mister DeMille?
I can't tell you how wonderful it is to be back in this studio making a picture.
I promise you - I will never desert you again.
This is my life. It always will be.
There's nothing else.
Just us. And the cameras.
And all you wonderful people, out there in the dark.
And now, Mister DeMille, I am ready for my close-up
NORMA: This time I'm staying
I'm staying for good
I'll be back where I was born to be
With one look I'll be me
