Review of The Star (1952) by Mindy B — 02 May 2007
Maybe less witty than All About Eve, but still a Davis tour-de-force! The scene where she takes a drunken ride with her Oscar is hysterical and pure Davis. The scricpt was written by two very close ex-friends of Joan Crawford and is reportedly based on her.
All you have to do is watch Bette relishing sending her old nemesis up and that rumour becomes fact. Superb.
