Synopsis

This often-quoted satire of the "theater world" is must-see Bette Davis. Davis is brilliantly supported by a fantastic cast (Anne Baxter, George Sanders, Celeste Holm and Gary Merrill) and terrific screenwriter/director (Joseph Mankiewicz) in this six-time Academy Award winner that was originally released in 1950 but still entertains today.
