While I found it an interesting watch I don't see in it everything that others apparently do - sure it was good, but is it really worth raving about? When it came out maybe, but now? I did like Marilyn Monroe's small role though, and personally found no fault with any of the tec...( read more)
I was rather disappointed in this. This movie receives tons of praise and it, along with Sunset Boulevard, was one of the most highly-praised films of 1950. This didn't live up to my expectations at all which will be explained in just a moment.
This movie tells the story of an a...( read more)
Excellent performance by Bette Davis and all in all a very good movie but Anne Baxter scared the shit out of me!
Great acting by Bette Midler and Anne Baxter.. but I think they smoke too much. No scene without ppl smoking in it.
With a smart script and a wonderful cast, All About Eve seemed as if it were going to be brilliant. And that it was. Sort of. The acting was superb, as was the direction and plot. It was also clever and interesting. Where this movie fails, however, is in its run time. With nearly...( read more)
The screenplay is amazing beyond words. And Bette Davis is at her best. Fantastic movie.
you will go through every emotion in this. AND where can you see Marilyn Monroe gazing at Betty Davis as if she were looking at a diva?
I am not the biggest Bette Davis fan, but there is no denying her acting prowess. She offers a standout performance among a great ensemble cast. George Sanders is wonderful and strong as the smart and seemingly all seeing Addison DeWitt. Anne Baxter gives a performance that would...( read more)
A truly wholesome film... everything works! The script, the direction, the cinematography, the amazing cast: Bette Davis (in one of the best performances i've ever seen), Anne Baxter (great as well), Celeste Holm, Hugh Marlowe and Thelma Ritter were pretty good. Gary Merrill cert...( read more)
Extremely developp and strong, the story is simply amazing, the performance remarquable and well, this old movie is a great one, a instant classic. The way thay analyse everything about porr, rich, blackmailing, frustration, noble, snob, everything, really good. And the dialogue ...( read more)
If you ever wondered how a masterpiece film could be made of a bunch of scheming women clawing out each other's eyes, look no further than this one. Great example of how to make a top-notch soap opera-type flick without going over the top. Terrific script, terrific performances.
"If nothing else, there's applause... like waves of love pouring over the footlights."
The quality of All About Eve has been much discussed and widely acclaimed in the decades following its release. All About Eve is a truly incredible movie that is hard to...( read more)
good but not great... if bette davis wasnt in this picture it wood hav compleeltly fell apart!!!
Great Dialouge better performances. Betty Davis is at the hieght of her power
Why did I wait so long to see this film? All about Eve is an adult themed film (not porn) with great dialogue and wonderful performances by the entire cast. This is a great classic film that everyone should see once in their life.
You can't ask for a better cast:Bette Davis, Anne Baxter and Marilyn Monroe landing a small supporting role. This great drama is all about the glamour, the jealousy, insecurity, betrayal, setting plans, using people and success. It really show the complexity of women AND men in d...( read more)
Bette Davis is literally almost perfect in this classic that is truly great. The script is one of the best ever written and sparkles with comedy and classic lines. This classic should be viewed by everybody.
One of the best movies I've watched in a long time. Everyone talks about Bette Davis in this movie, but I think it's Anne Baxter who makes the show. She's completely believeable as both innocent and conniving.
Who doesn't love a good cat fight between two shameless actresses? Bothe leading ladies are spectacular.
Bette Davies is incredible. Films really arent made like this anymore, fantastic!
This was a pretty well done movie but I have to say the beginning was a bit boring.
Having only recently been willing to watch films older than myself, I was sceptical when watching this old black and white drama. But I was very surprised, and [mostly thanks to this film] I am much more willing to watch old films. A true classic and a film that has changed my ou...( read more)
I loved this movie and there was a very brief appearance of Marilyn Monroe!
I got rather frustrated with this film- just far too obvious and hasn't got enough depth. I was quite entertained by Marilyn Monroe's cameo though- the film needs more Marilyn!
Excellent movie! Bette Davis is especially extraordinary in her role. I don't really know what more to say about it.
comprei esse dvd pra dar em um "roubo oculto" crente que ia voltar pra mim... mas perdi. que ódeo.
Very good film. I especially liked all the theatre terms mentioned, that you wouldn't undertsand unless part of that world. idk, I liked it.
Phenomenal film. Bette Davis gives a commanding performance that stands out solid in an overall excellent film.
One of my favorite movies..and for good reason. Featuring one of the greatest scripts I have ever seen, and one of cinema's greatest performances by Bette Davis, this witty film is a rarity in that I can watch it countless times and never tire of it. Lines from All About Eve have...( read more)
fantastically sharp, biting, and beautifully executed. Bette Davis stole the show, in this blunt portrayal of the calculated backstabbing that showbiz is known for.
I should to say that i did buy it for seeing Marilyn Monroe in her very short role. I knew that it was a SHORT role, but i did not Knew that it was at this point. Only few minutes with her, and she has only 2-3 sentences to say.
But, it's surprising for me, because even if i d...( read more)
