Re: All About Eve 60th Anniversary Edition
I currently have only one Blu-ray digibook, which is still sealed, Dr. Strangelove, but I love the fact that more studios are using this packaging format. First Warner, then Sony and now Fox, and few non-US distributors as well.

The artwork is classy, and the US disc will be cheaper to import than its French counterpart.

Got the film on Friday though I haven't had a chance to see the new presentation yet but wanted to chime in on the packaging: it is quite lovely and study but they could have done without the inside booklet which just consists of one-page biographies and stills. If you're looking for MoC/Crit-style in depth writings about Eve, you won't find them in there.

I don't think any of the Blu-ray digibook releases has in-depth writings about the film.

This looks fucking beautiful, might even improve upon Psycho as the best B+W Blu-ray transfer I've seen yet. The packaging might be slight, but I prefer it to the WB digibooks (yes, even the sleeve) and I hope Fox keeps them and improves upon them. As for the film - I adored it, I hadn't seen it before (it's an LQ favorite, though) and I look forward to digging through the heap of bonus features on this release. Does anyone have any other great Anne Baxter performances to recommend?

Re: All About Eve 60th Anniversary Edition
Welcome aboard, she's one of the truly greats. The Blue Gardenia is the ultimate, of course, but she's a total riot in A Royal Scandal, greatly unsung in Swamp Water, Oscar-winning (but a little too scenery-chewy) in the Razor's Edge, and totally balls to the wall in Stranger in the House, to name but a few off the top of my head.mfunk9786 wrote: Does anyone have any other great Anne Baxter performances to recommend?
Also, we have a dedicated thread for the film if you want to get into it more
