| | The Flick Filosopher | All About Eve (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09) |
 | | Written and directed by Joseph L. Mankiewicz, this is perhaps the first film with an attitude we today would call modern. |
 | | The film opens with a ceremony honoring actress Eve Harrington (Anne Baxter), with voiceover commentary from theater critic Addison Dewitt (George Sanders), his snide take on actors, playwrights, theater, Eve Harrington, and the distinguished award she's winning. |
 | | Also at the ceremony, scowling their displeasure, are actress Margo Channing (Bette Davis) and Karen Richards (Celeste Holm), wife of the playwright who wrote the role that won Eve her award. |
