016 All About Eve (1950)

This is one of those movies that Hollywood does best: a movie about actors. Eve is a fan who sees every performance of her favorite stage actress. When the actress finally notices her, she invites her back stage, and they get to know each other. The actress hires Eve to work as her assistant. Then, she becomes her understudy, and then a nasty little trick is played in which the actress can't make her show and Eve performs and the critics love her. She gets her own show and wins the Tony award that year, nearly breaking up the actress' family and friends in the process. In the end it is revealed that Eve was never the sweet unassuming fan she appeared to be int he beginning, but she was sort of con artist who planned the whole thing from the begining. It's sort of a behind the scenes story that turns out to be a who-done-it.
