ABSTRACT

In the classic motion picture All About Eve, considered one of the greatest films of all time by the American Film Institute, Academy-Award-winning screen actress Bette Davis delivers one of the most memorable lines in movie history: “Fasten your seat belts, it’s going to be a bumpy night.” Davis also has something to say about public relations in the film Hush, Hush, Sweet Charlotte. When responding to an on-screen character who works in the public relations field, Davis says: “Public relations? That sounds like something dirty.”
