Writer-director Joseph L. Mankiewicz's
sharp script anchors this story about New York City theater life, with Bette Davis
playing an aging Broadway diva who employs a starstruck fan (Anne Baxter)
as her assistant, only to learn the woman is a conniving upstart. The now-classic All About Eve won Oscars for Best Picture, Best Director (Mankiewicz), Best Screenplay and Best Supporting Actor (George Sanders).
1950 NR 138 minutes
4.75 stars (Dale-4.5, David-5) fabulous classic, great story, amazing acting, a bit slow at times but overall a wonderful film.
