‘Fasten Your Seatbelts!’ Bette Davis and Anne Baxter Star in All About Eve, the 14-Time Oscar® Nominee Returns to Cinemas March 5 and 8 as Part of the TCM Big Screen Classics Series
WHAT: Bette Davis stars as Margo Channing in the film that critic Roger Ebert called “her greatest role” – a Broadway star who is nearly undone by the treacherous Eve Harrington (Anne Baxter) in All About Eve, from 20th Century Fox. Presented as part of the TCM Big Screen Classics series, All About Eve hits movie theaters nationwide for two days only on March 5 and 8.
Only two films, Titanic and this year’s La La Land, have received as many Oscar nominations as 1950’s All About Eve – whose 14 nominations led to six Academy Awards®, including Best Picture and Best Supporting Actor (George Sanders). Its director, Joseph L. Mankiewicz, was also honored with an Oscar for his masterful work, and his great-nephew, Turner Classic Movies (TCM) host Ben Mankiewicz, presents newly produced commentary before and after the feature.
