"Wszystko o Ewie" - "kobiecość" w roli głównej
"All About Eve", starring Feminity

Summary/Abstract: Gałuszka’s analysis of Joseph L. Mankiewicz’s film "All About Eve" is the pretext for a reflection on the nature of film acting. The phenomenon of being an actor blurs the line between truth and falsity, being and acting. It particularly manifests itself when we watch actors playing actors on screen. It becomes even more clear when compared are one of the definitions of acting (striving for an ambiguous whole, some truth about man) with the story of the actresses – women playing actresses. In Mankiewicz’s film all the actresses get to work on a single and highly conventionalised theme – femininity. It paves the way for a question of the identity of the woman the other woman personates on screen.
