When I saw this DVD for cheap at the local store, I bought it simple for the cast and a vague memory of hearing the title somewhere. So I took it home, popped it into the player, and immediately became sucked into this darkly humorous piece of manipulation.
We see from the movie's beginning how it will end. A beautiful young starlet appearing from practically nowhere to achieve great fame. The rest of the movie takes us back to this young woman's beginnings and her trail of lies that positioned herself just where she wanted to be. Even though Eve is the title character, what we see the most of is the results of her actions among her so-called friends.
It has all the right elements of drama and intrigue, just short of someone literally stabbing someone else in the back. Modern crowds used to constant action might be bored, but if one is willing to watch the ingenious and devious dance, he will be rewarded.
