Out of the Closet and Into My Heart

Going to a screening of All About Eve in Hollywood is like watching Big Momma’s House 2 in Compton. Bursts of laughter or applause met Bette Davis’s every crack, wink, and sigh. Occasionally the guffaws set off by a wince swallowed up the following punch-line whole. I was annoyed and then, when motel keys amazingly weren’t thrown at the screen during close-ups of George Sanders, disappointed.
Apparently All About Eve is the gay Roots. The screening turned out to be part of the Egyptian Theatre’s “OutFest” series, sponsored by some activist group that tries to perform the miracle of getting homosexuals involved in show business.
Way to smoke ’em out of the closet, boys!
