Green Tea Bich Ava (Anne Baxter) is an ordinary girl who is frivolous and vain and yearns for the upper life of the theater world. She is young, beautiful, capable, talented and ambitious. She meets Margot (Bette Davis), the first sister in the theater at the time, through Margot's best friend, Silly Sweet Karen (Celester Holm), and then concocts a tragic life to deceive everyone's sympathy. He was able to stay by Margo's side, successfully completed the first jump, and got the job of assistant assistant.
During the chores, Ava performed very well. From the foreign affairs to the arrangement of an object in the room, Ava took care of everything in a proper way. Even for the birthday of Margot's male ticket director Bill, she remembered to make an appointment and confirm. Birthday party guest list (Actually, Ava was already planning to do something at the birthday party). On the other hand, because of more and more mentions and praises of Ava in the conversation between her male voter Bill, Margot also began to feel that something was wrong. She found that everyone around her praised Ava, including best friends Karen, Kay Lun's husband, playwright Loy, and his male ticket, Bill. Ava's youthful beauty and perfection make Margot feel threatened. So Margot was about to dump Ava to her producer Max, but she didn't expect Ava to take the lead in using silly white sweet Karen to get Margo's stand-in position, and got director Bill and producer Max in an audition , playwright Lowy, and caustic critic Addison (George Sanders).
Margot got so annoyed that she broke out in the theater, quarreled with everyone, and even broke up with Bill. Everyone felt that Margo was unreasonable and expressed very unhappy, and even her best friend, the silly white sweet Karen, decided to teach Margo a lesson. So Karen teamed up with Ava to deliberately let Margo run out of gas on her car's way to the show, preventing her from showing up on time. As Margo's stand-in, Ava invited many reporters and drama critics in advance, and presented a wonderful performance that night, which was well received by the public. So far, Ava has completed the second jump from assistant to actor.
After that, Addison, a joint drama critic of Ava, published a news remark against Margot in the newspaper. Finally, Bill and Karen discovered the truth of Ava's green tea Bichi, and Margot and Bill were reunited. At this time, Ava approached Karen and asked her to give her the main character Kela prepared for Margot in her husband's playwright Roy's new work, otherwise Karen's design of Margot would be revealed. Karen had to agree.
Ava is proud of her success, ready to attack Karen's husband Loy, and the drama critic Addison, who has been by Ava's side and supports her, slaps Ava neatly and tells Ava after listening to Ava's plan. She can only be with herself. Addison mercilessly exposed all the lies and conspiracies of Ava's past, bluntly said that Ava's rank was too low, and these methods were far from enough to make Ava humiliated and embarrassed like being stripped naked in public, "You and Like me, I look down on all beings, unable to love and be loved, unfulfilled desires, inexhaustible talents, we are a perfect match." Haha, it's really a bitch and a dog, forever.
Thanks to Ava's efforts and Addison's marketing, Ava finally won the post-show crown, completed the last jump of the triple jump, and became a big-name star since she was a child. But now Ava has become Addison's marionette, dead and lifeless. One day, Ava came back to the house and found a beautiful and bright girl in the room looking at her jealously and attentively, just like herself before.
The black and white film of 1950 made the beauties shine brightly, and the goddess Monroe did not hesitate to show a good figure when she played soy sauce. At the end of the film, director Joseph L. Mankiewicz arranged a scene in which countless girls are reflected by three mirrors, probably saying that life is endless and reincarnation is endless.
