Ambitious young fan Eve Harrington maneuvers her way into the life of aging, insecure Broadway star Margo Channing, initially posing as a devoted admirer before methodically undermining Margo's career and relationships from the inside. As Eve's calculated rise threatens to eclipse Margo entirely, the people around them, from a cynical theater critic to Margo's own friends, begin to see through Eve's manipulations too late to stop her. Joseph L. Mankiewicz's acid-tongued drama frames Eve's ascent as a cautionary tale about ambition, aging, and the theater's ruthless appetite for the next rising star.
