‘All About Eve’ at 70

washingtonblade.com“All About Eve” was a triumph forged in a crucible of rancor and suspicion. Bette Davis bludgeoned the actress who played her onscreen confidant, Celeste Holm, as the “one bitch in the cast,” before adding cattily that George Sanders was also a “bitch” (she’d learned he was bisexual through Henry Fonda), then circling back for a swipe at Marilyn Monroe: “That blonde little slut couldn’t act her way out of a paper bag.” Monroe, who sobbed and vomited after shooting both her scenes with Davis, shot back: “That woman hates every female who can walk.
She’s a mean old broad.” The cast’s distrust mirrored the dynamics of the screenplay. “All About Eve” was built on a simple premise: There’s a viper in the nest.

‘Trans people are allowed to be good at sport’: Caitlyn Jenner slammed by charity after claiming transgender swimmer Lia Thomas ‘lacks integrity’
Caitlyn Jenner has faced backlash from charity Mermaids after suggesting transgender swimmer Lia Thomas should not be competing against cisgender women and should have more ‘integrity’.University of Pennsylvania swimmer Thomas, 22, won both the 100 and 200-metre races against Harvard University this month. Former Olympian Jenner, who came out as a transgender woman in 2015, has come under fire for her views on other transgender athletes, and has now called for the ‘rules to be changed’.Verity, Trans Inclusion in Sports Youth Worker at Mermaids, a charity supporting young trans people, hit back at her comments, telling Metro.co.uk: ‘Caitlyn Jenner has, again, used her platform of privilege against the trans community… In fact, Lia has won some races and set records, but she has also had her times beaten by much younger athletes and cis female swimmers.’Verity added: ‘Trans people are allowed to be good at sport, just because you’re trans does not make you superhuman. You must train, have the right coaches, nutrition, training programmes, facilities, funding and most of all, skill within the sport.
