< All About Eve
All About Eve/YMMV
- Magnificent Bastard: Addison De Witt.
- Nightmare Fuel: The concept of someone slowly destabilizing your life and your nearest and dearest friends not believing you when you turn to them for help makes Margo's frequent angry outbursts very understandable.
- One-Scene Wonder: Marilyn Monroe makes one of her first film appearances, playing a Dumb Blonde.
- Unfortunate Implications: It has been argued that this movie has anti-homosexual and anti-feminist undertones. Addison and Eve are presented as villains, and, as noted, are often interpreted as homosexuals. Eve's focus on her career, in contrast to Karen's devotion to her husband, and Margo's eventual acceptance of Bill and of her fading career, is shown as devious, and she eventually succumbs to Addison's domination.
