Four-time Academy Award winner Joseph L. Mankiewicz’s classic All About Eve (1950) is famous for its smart dialogue, dramatic twists and turns, and an extraordinary cast. Esteemed New York Times film critic Bosley Crowther hailed it as “witty, mature and worldly-wise.” Bette Davis, in what Roger Ebert called her greatest role, stars as an imperious Broadway star, while Anne Baxter plays a young upstart striving to scheme her way into the limelight. A virtual unknown by the name of Marilyn Monroe shines in a small comic role as a sexy aspiring actor.
