On this day, April 17, 1918, William Holden was born. [View all]

I'm not sure what the point is of colorizing the publicity pictures for Sunset Boulevard.

Actor William Holden was #BornOnThisDay April 17, 1918. Film roles; Sunset Boulevard (1950), Picnic (1955) & Network (1976). Battling alcoholism in 1981 he passed intoxicated (age 63), having slipped on a rug, lacerating his forehead on a table, he bled to death #RIP #GoneTooSoon
