All About Eve/Trivia

• Beam Me Up, Scotty: Margo's famous quote is "it's going to be a bumpy night", not "ride"; she was actually referring to a party.
• Hey, It's That Guy!: This film has one of Marilyn Monroe's first speaking parts.
• What Could Have Been: Manciewicz' first choice for Margot Channing was Claudette Colbert, who had to drop out of the production after an injury. Jeanne Crain was originally cast to play Eve but became pregnant.
