— Fasten your seat belts, it’s going to be a bumpy night.

Femininity, aging, betrayal, manipulation and ambition are just a few of the themes touched upon in All About Eve. It’s funny, but it’s also a lot cleverer than it looks. It’s got melodrama, yet somehow never goes over the top. All About Eve takes the age-old story of a young performer buttering up an old one, with the intention of usurping them, but makes it into something new, something utterly brilliant. Not to be missed. — Emma
