Non-free / fair use media rationale for Sunset Boulevard (film)
Description	Original film poster for the film Sunset Boulevard (1950), showing its star Gloria Swanson.
Source	All Posters. Image copyright is owned by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
Article	Sunset Boulevard (film)
Portion used	Full image
Low resolution?	yes
Purpose of use	The poster is intended to provide an illustration for a well known and significant film, and the purpose of the poster is to suggest something of the film's style. Of the various posters available this is the most appropriate, because unlike some others, it is from the period of the film's initial release, and was widely distributed by Paramount Studios to promote the film. As such it enhances the article by providing an authentic representation of some elements of the film's style and marketing. It is a more appropriate choice than other images that were designed for limited releases, re-releases or for foreign markets.
Replaceable?	not replaceable as film posters for this film are subject to copyright
Other information	This image is used on various websites, and has been published in several books, so its use on Wikipedia does not make it significantly more accessible or visible than it already is. Our use of this image does not detract from the original and as it is low resolution it is unlikely to adversely affect the copyright holder's ability to use it for commercial purposes.
