The argument with Lloyd and Margo was astonishingly well done. Not just the script but the blocking too, with it carrying on as Lloyd goes to leave the theatre. He really didn't want to let her have the last word!

The script is exquisite. My favorite lines:
Bill: Zanuck is impaintant, he wants me, he needs me
Margo: Zanuck, Zanuck, Zanuck! What are you two, lovers?
Bill: Only in some ways. You're prettier.
Perfection! My only question is: How did they get those lines past the censors? Or more importantly, how did they get those lines past Darryl Zanuck?

I thought his previous film A LETTER TO THREE WIVES was just about as good as EVE. Quite the 2 years for Mankiewicz.

Yes, Joe Mankiewicz was one of the finest writers to ever pass thru Hollywood (his brother Herman wrote CITIZAN KANE, so it was genetic).
The only film I can think of with dialogue as withering is 1968's LION IN WINTER with Katharine Hepburn (but avoid the TV remake).
