Review of All About Eve (1950) by Shane M — 11 Dec 2010
Great writing, great acting, just an okay story.
This film starts off by telling the audience how Eve ends up, so I didn't have as much sympathy for her since I knew she was an award wining actress from the first 10 seconds of the film. I just could not get engaged with very many of these characters. I say it could have been shortened a bit to, that is to say the plot moved a bit to slow for me. Great ending though.
Overall, a very good film; I have some gripes with the editing, but am willing to admit that just because I couldn't get invested in the characters, doesn't mean no one else can.
Recommended.
