Joseph L. Mankiewicz' script for All About Eve is one of the sharpest, most sophisticated examples of mid-century Hollywood screenwriting there is, and Bette Davis' performance—especially the scene were she gets drunk at Bill's party—is legendary. If that's not enough, the film remains incredibly relevant as an invective against the kind of shameless self-promotion that still rules the celebrity roost. 20th Century Fox has done a terrific job with this release, with an immaculate new high definition transfer, a crisp audio track, and a collection of supplements that, while recycled from previous releases, offer lots of insight into the making of the film. Highly recommended!
