Winner of 6 Academy Awards including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Screenplay
All About Eve is a beloved classic in the history of cinema and is often cited as one of the greatest films ever made. The actresses are superb: Anne Baxter and Bette Davis. The film also stars Celeste Holm, George Sanders, and Marilyn Monroe in supporting roles. The story is about Eve Harrington (Anne Baxter) as a young and ambitious woman who insinuates herself in the life and career of aging Broadway star Margo Channing (Bette Davis). While Eve appears to be a devoted fan and assistant to Margo, her true motives become clear. She is cunning and charming as she steal Margo’s spotlight and success. This is all about ambition, betrayal, and the price of fame.
Pairs nicely with our Wine of the Month! Chateau Ste. Michelle’s Sauvignon Blanc at Wine Enthusiast.
