281. All About Eve with special guest Jack Fields
Manage episode 484280950 series 2970180
“Bill's thirty-two. He looks thirty-two. He looked it five years ago; he'll look it twenty years from now. I hate men.” We watched “All About Eve” with our friend Jack Fields, and it was indeed a bumpy night. We really don’t have an answer as to how it took us this long to cover this titan of a movie, but here we are, and we had a blast. It doesn’t get any better than Bette Davis lashing out at anyone and anything with some of the shadiest lines in movie history. Anne Baxter more than holds her own against Miss Davis, and yes… we discuss the famed Best Actress Oscar race of 1950. Some of us are team Bette, others are team Gloria Swanson, but we can all agree 1950 was a hell of a year for queer-coded cinema, and “All About Eve” has stood the test of time as one of the gayest movies of all time.
