This Best Picture winner belongs to Bette Davis in a bravura role as a fading Broadway leading lady. Monroe had only a bit part in All About Eve, but this early performance cemented her status as the go-to dumb blonde and archteypical gold digger in classic Hollywood movies. Despite the limited screen time, her star quality is evident. She sparkles in the role of theater critic George Saunders arm-candy date at a disastrous birthday party for the star.
