All About Eve is an awesome movie mostly because of just one scene. And, if you've seen it, you know exactly which scene I'm talking about.

Many compare this to "Sunset Blvd," I don't. It is not as good, nor does it share the same plot. It did come out in the same year, but "Sunset" still blows it away, even if it was released today!

Interesting female characters.

A fairly good film about show business although not nearly as good as sunset boulevard. I t is interesting to see all the actions of the various well established characters of the women. The men are not nearly as well drawn besides the the seedy critic played well by George Sanders. The two men just do not have enough to say or to do to be anyone although. The women characters are all interesting with each of their individual ideas and plans. Although Eve may have been a bit too bizarre for realism.

A Classic

::sigh:: If only I could write HALF as well...

The dialogue is like a whip to the spine. Sharp, strong and so quick that it makes this movie even more of a joy to watch again and again if only to catch it all.

The story is compelling, and gives an interesting inside look at the drama behind the scenes of theater-life.

More than that, the acting is ridiculously good. I adore the relationship between Margo and her boyfriend Bill. Their back and forth sass and subtle sweetness is remarkable...

...as for Eve, I'd like to slap the broad.

Somewhat Met My Expectations

The main reason why I decided to watch this film is because I heard from critics that it has one of the finest screenplays ever written. I'm glad that to say that it somewhat met my expectations. The dialogue is witty, the characters are complex, and it is beautifully shot. But one of the reasons why I'm slightly disappointed is because I guess I was expecting a different kind of movie. Still, I did enjoy the banters and the costumes, especially coming from a film in early 1950's. If compared to today's films, it's still very smart and articulate. I couldn't take my eyes off Bette Davis because of the way she portrayed her character; I could feel the passion in the way she carried herself and the way she talked with such eloquence. I also enjoyed the way Anne Baxter's character, Eve Harri...
