Informazioni su questo film

From the moment she glimpses her idol at the stage door, Eve Harrington (Ann Baxter) is determined to take the reins of power away from the great actress Margo Channing (Bette Davis). Eve maneuvers her way into Margo's Broadway role, becomes a sensation and even causes turmoil in the lives of Margo's director boyfriend (Gary Merrill), her playwright (Hugh Marlowe) and his wife (Celeste Holm). Only the cynical drama critic (Oscar® winner George Sanders) sees through Eve, admiring her audacity and perfect pattern of deceit. Thelma Ritter and Marilyn Monroe co-star in this acclaimed classic, which won six Academy Awards® and received the most nominations in film history.

Valutazioni e recensioni

In my opinion, one of the best films ever made. Certainly, Bette Davis' finest performance! Great Ensemble Cast; including Marilyn Monroe, as an up & coming Starlet, Celeste Holmes, & Anne Baxter!

Yep. This is the kind of movie people write books about. Very high class stuff. The wit and verbal sparring is almost Oscar Wilde level good. Obviously Bette Davis is genius, as is George Sanders. The movie is very satisfying from beginning to end. Has got to be one of the best movies Hollywood ever produced.

Finally watched this classic. I can see why it attracts so much fandom, well-told story.
