  10. For discussion • Why does the film end with Phoebe? • Why does it end with Eve off camera? • Has Eve become Margo? • Does All About Eve have a happy ending?

  11. What do these key quotes suggest? • ‘And she gave the performance of her life’. Addison DeWitt • ‘You can always put that award where your heart ought to be’. Margo • ‘No it isn’t. It’s for this.’ [award] Eve ‘It’s the same thing isn’t it?’ Addison • “Do you want someday to have an award like that of your own?.’ Addison ‘More than anything else in the world.’ Phoebe

  12. Message – use sentence stems to help you • The final scene acts to… • Eve’s journey teaches us that… • Mankiewicz shows/teaches/warns us… • The message can help you to form a contention • It’s god to talk about the message in your conclusion.

  13. Values • 2 (values) principles or standards of behaviour; one's judgement of what is important in life: they internalize their parents' rules and values. • Remember discussion about what you admire in a friend – these are your values.

  14. Values - Message • To understand the message we must understand the values in the film • We are also able to comment on how we view this as a modern audience – this addresses this part of the criteria: • Construction of a sophisticated interpretation, which demonstrates an understanding of ways in which the text is open to different interpretations by different readers.

  15. Group work • Value per group • Discuss and report back to the class

  16. Back to goal • Something you got ‘square on’, something that’s still going ‘around’ in your head, something you would like to get to the ‘pointy’ end on/investigate.
