Fedora (1978) A Film by Billy Wilder


"Death-haunted work often grips the twilight stages of great artist's careers, and this one is no exception: Wilder's penultimate effort disperses the funereal gloom of its opening scenes across its runtime all while disentangling, flashback by flashback, the events leading up to the titular diva's horrifying suicide." Full piece on Billy's newly restored Fedora up now at Slant Magazine.
