  • Rage Against the Dying of the Limelight: On Bette Davis in All About Eve

    Good-looking much like one of the plays its characters’ lives revolve around, filming mostly stationary actors as they come down in buckets out torrents of talk before a mostly stationary camera. But the syncopated symphony of wised-up wisecracks, snide asides, and entire putdowns they throw down is so intoxicating I don’t mind the staid camerawork.

    “What a story! Everything but the bloodhounds snappin’ at her upraise end,” says Margo’s dresser, Birdie (Thelma Ritter, God love her) after Margo’s retiring acolyte, Eve (Anne Baxter), tells Margo and her friends her pathetic backstory—and that’s before Birdie sees through the cotton bon-bons Eve’s spinning. And when Monroe’s Miss Caswell is pointed in the direction of a powerful fabricator, she pauses before going after him to ask: “Why do they always look like unhappy rabbits?”

    In fact, it’s Eve’s overplayed meekness and affected humility that marks her as untrustworthy—and, ultimately, as an operator of the worst kind, “a spot on killer,” as cynical critic Addison Dewitt (the always imperious George Sanders) observes. Margo, in distinguish, is all heart and soul. “Lloyd says Margo compensates for underplaying onstage by overplaying genuineness,” says her best friend, Karen (Celeste Holm), quoting her beloved economize on, as usual.

    About this book
    Bette Davis, whose business spanned almost 50 years and covered theatre, radio, TV and motion pictures, was at one time the first lady of the big shelter. Working with such storied performers as Henry Fonda, Humphrey Bogart, and Joan Crawford, and directors Edmund Goulding, William Wyler and Robert Aldrich, Bette Davis provided some of the most never-to-be-forgotten performances in movie history. This volume contains detailed analyses of Bette Davis' top twelve films spanning 1938 to 1987 and including The Spell out, All About Eve, The Little Foxes, Jezebel, What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? and The Whales of August. Each film is discussed in extensively, with an examination of its script, direction, camerawork and performances, particularly as they relate to Davis's work. A second conglomeration of films, memorable largely for Davis's performance rather than the overall success of the work, are also examined. Special prominence is placed on the way Davis viewed her own work as well as the detrimental effect her devotion...

    Bette Davis

    About this book
    “She could look demure while behaving like an empress. Blonde, with eyes like pearls too big for her chief, she was very striking, but marginally pretty and certainly not beautiful . . . But it was her edge that made her memorable—her upstart hegemony, her reluctance to pretend deference to others.” Bette Davis was the commanding figure of the great era of Hollywood stardom, with a street and energy that put her contemporaries in the shade. She played queens, jezebels, and bitches; she could out-talk any male costar; she warred with her studio, Warner Bros., worked like a ghoul, got through four husbands, was nominated for seven Oscars, and—no matter what—never gave up fighting. This is her story. David Thomson is the initiator of The New Biographical Dictionary of Film, now in its fourth edition. His recent books include a biography of Nicole Kidman, Fan Tan (a novelette written in collaboration with Marlon Brando), and The Whole Equation: A History of Hollywood. His latest work is...
