Eva contro Eva

La storia

Eva Harrington, ragazza di modesta condizione, piena d'entusiasmo per il teatro, riesce, per mezzo di Karen Lloyd, moglie d'un celebre commediografo, ad avvicinare Margo Channing, grande attrice quarantenne, ancora bella e trionfante. Coi suoi modi insinuanti, spacciandosi per la vedova d'un caduto, Eva riesce ad accaparrarsi le simpatie e ad assicurarsi la protezione di Margo, che l'accoglie in casa sua come segretaria. Una sera Margo arriva in ritardo per la recita e trova Eva, che sta leggendo la sua parte. Quando il giornalista Addison De Witt, il regista Bill Simpson e Karen esaltano il talento d'Eva, Margo sente il morso della gelosia. Qualche tempo dopo, Karen, con uno stratagemma, rende impossibile a Margo di partecipare alla recita: Eva la sostituisce ottenendo un successo trionfale.
