All About Eve 1950 Is film making at its best..Intelligent, witty, articulate screenplay . Brilliantly acted by perhaps ,the best ensemble cast ever..headed by BETTE DAVIS as Margo, a role that should have earned her a 3rd Oscar.. Anne Baxter, terrific as Eve Gary Merril, GEORGE SANDERS who deservedly won best supporting actor Oscar , Thelma Ritter who almost steals every scene shes in, Celeste Holm perfect as Karen, Hugh Marlowe, and a very young ,gorgeous MARIYLN MONROE as Miss Caswell. Joseph L. Mankiewiez direction is meticulous..Its
outstanding, its a masterpiece..the film is funny, dramatic and overall superb!! I Can watch this film over and over again, and never bored This is the true test of a great film! Has also been copied but never equalled Every aspect of this film deserves praise, the score, the photography, the cast the script and above all the direction. Eve held the record for most Oscar nominations of a film (14) for years..For Me ALL ABOUT EVE is the Best American film ever !!
