In 1950, All About Eve was released to tremendous critical acclaim, based on an amazing lead performance by Bette Davis. In the film, Davis plays a Broadway star who has just turned 40, and realizes her career soon will be eclipsed by the next pretty young thing. Like a true diva, Eve refuses to bow out gracefully, and a series of romantic exchanges and blackmail threats ensue from her dramatics. Keep an eye out for the first-ever film appearance by Marilyn Monroe, who appears cast as a ditzy blonde in a party scene. Part of the Silver Screen Classics Program.
