[QUOTE="ClassyCo, post: 401371, member: 7"] I was literally thinking about ALL ABOUT EVE earlier today. It's easily one of my favorite classic films. It's a wonderful dialogue-heavy film, and I find it practically flawless in its execution. But I'd say A LETTER TO THREE WIVES is right there to bring on par with EVE. Heck, WIVES is the reason Darryl F. Zanuck greenlit Mankiewicz's EVE, originally titled "Best Performance". In September 1961, Marilyn submitted Mankiewicz as a writer-director she'd agree to work with as part of her new Fox contract that gave her more creative control over her films. CLEOPATRA, from what I can tell, is an utter mess of a film. I've got the DVD, but I've never even attempted to watch the movie. I bought it specifically for "The Film That Changed Hollywood" documentary included as a bonus feature, which is now uploaded in its entirety You-Know-Where. PS: as it's often been said, I find the behind-the-scenes misfires and gossips of CLEOPATRA more interesting than the film itself. The film's production would make a darn good movie in its own right.
