Showered with Oscars, this wonderfully bitchy (and witty) comedy written and directed by Joseph L. Mankiewicz concerns an aging theater star (Bette Davis) whose life is being supplanted by a wolf-in-sheep's-clothing ingenue (Anne Baxter) whom she helped. This is a film for a viewer to take in like a box of chocolates, packed with scene-for-scene delights that make the entire story even better than it really is. The film also gives deviously talented actors such as George Sanders and Thelma Ritter a chance to speak dazzling lines; Davis bites into her role and never lets go. A classic from Mankiewicz, a legendary screenwriter and the brilliant director of A Letter to Three Wives, The Barefoot Contessa, and Sleuth. --Tom Keogh

An American Classic December 1, 2009
Michael D. Lindsey (Columbus, OH)
Anyone who has not seen this movie is missing one of Hollywood's greatest movies ever produced. It was nominated for 11 Oscars, and deserved every one of them. Bette Davis has never been better as Margo Channing, the shimmering stage actress who's candle is just beginning to dim, as she reaches the age of 40. The supporting cast are all perfectly "cast".
George Sanders as the slimy theater critic Addison DeWitt.
Gary Merrill as the director of Margo's plays; and also her boyfriend.
Hugh Marlowe as the playwright for most of Margo's greatest performances.
Celeste Holm as Marlowe's wife and Margo's best friend.
Thelma Ritter as Margo's housemaid and personal assistant
Marilyn Monroe as a wannabe actress
And Ann Blyth as the inibitable Eve Harrington.
Nothing beats this script for wit, sarcasm and dry humor. I own a copy but still watch it every time its on television.
I could watch it once a week, it's that good.

Considered by some to be one of the most literate movies ever made. It certainly contains some of the best acting ever done on film. Everyone does a wonderful job - especially Bette Davis, Anne Baxter, & George Sanders. Marilyn Monroe has a small part & is lovely in it. If you want to see a great vintage classic film with wonderful acting pyrotechnics get this one. The bonus material always gives added incite. A must have.
Can't be beat September 25, 2009
Tom in Boston (Boston)
Simply can't be beat for the intelligent and witty script, the superb acting and the flawless direction. That's why it consistently appears on everyone's list of top movies of all times. Bette Davis' good luck in getting the lead role when Claudette Colbert become ill was our win as well.
