Our month of Best Picture Oscar winners continues with All About Eve - where Anne Baxter’s ambitious Eve inserts herself into the life of Bette Davis’ legendary Broadway star with a plan to steal the actress’s crown. We’ll hear Ms. Baxter and Ms. Davis - both Oscar nominees for their performances - in stories from Suspense and a Lux Radio Theatre recreation of the film. Anne Baxter fights to get ahead in the cutthroat world of advertising in “Always Room at the Top” (originally aired on CBS on February 20, 1947), and Bette Davis is menaced by a madman in “Goodnight, Mrs. Russell” (originally aired on CBS on October 20, 1949). Then the stars reunite on the Lux broadcast of “All About Eve” (originally aired on CBS on October 10, 1951).
