Sheesh. You guys ever hear of the Wikipedia?

"*Gloria Swanson* (March 27, 1899 -- April 4, 1983) was an American actress. She was most prominent during the silent film <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silent_film> era as both an actress and a fashion icon, especially under the direction of Cecil B. DeMille <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cecil_B._DeMille>."

So she was 51 when SUNSET BOULEVARD was released. Funny what Hollywood considered "old" in those days. Oh, wait, that's what they still consider "old" for an actress, isn't it?
