All About Eve (1950)
Drama
In one of her "sharpest, truest, most sophisticated and titillating performances" (Los Angeles Examiner), screen legend Bette Davis plays stage legend Margo Channing. But as Margo's star is dimming, Eve Harrington (Anne Baxter), a young, ambitious ingenue, becomes her all-too-willing protege. Slowly, this dreamy-eyed kid spins a deceptively cunning web around Channing's inner-circle, including Margo's director boyfriend Bill Simpson (Gary Merrill), playwright Lloyd Richards (Hugh Marlowe) and his wife Karen (Celeste Holm) until she reaches her end goal – Margo's spotlight on Broadway!

The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951)
Drama | Sci-Fi | Thriller
The Day The Earth Stood Still depicts the arrival of an alien dignitary, Klaatu (Michael Rennie), who has come to earth with his deadly robot, Gort (Lock Martin), to deliver the message that earthlings must stop warring among themselves–or else. After being shot at by military guards, Klaatu is brought to a Washington, D.C. hospital, where he begs a sympathetic but frank Major White (Robert Osterloh) to gather all the world's leaders so he can tell them more specifically what he has come to warn them about. Losing patience, Klaatu slips into the human world, adapting a false identity and living at a boarding house where he meets a smart woman with a conscience and her inquisitive son. Both mother and son soon find themselves embroiled in the complex mystery of Klaatu, his message and the government's witch hunt for the alien.
