Between the presentation by Walter Hampden as the dean of actors and Miss Bax- ter's gracious thank-you speech is unfolded an incisive behind-the- scenes story that calls into play all those instrumental in Miss Baxter’s Among them are Bette as the reigning Broadway star who first takes the fledgling' actress under wing; George San-| ders, drama critic and career man- | ipulator; Celeste Holm, the fash-! lonable and schooled wife of noted playright Hugh Marlowe; Gary Merrill, a celebrated director, and George Ratoff, veteran producer. | Their stories taken together tell us “All About Eve” and are the ngredients of a sharp, fascinating | screenplay, crowned with a final irony which is simply spellhinding. | Young Artists .
