Map It:  Silver Spring

THE AFI SILVER is having a Bette Davis festival all through April. If you don't know who that is, then you haven't been introduced to the greatest bug-eyed film actress of all time — sorry, Susan Sarandon.

Davis' greatest film is "All About Eve," the tale of an aging film star who is betrayed by her young assistant. The film is a classic, bitingly funny and filled with great performances from '50s character actors like Celeste Holm. Yeah, maybe you've never heard of her. Go see it anyway. You won't be sorry.

The film plays Friday and Tuesday night at 7 p.m., Saturday at 3:30 p.m., and Sunday at 1 p.m.

» AFI Silver Theater and Cultural Center, 8633 Colesville Rd., Silver Spring; $6.75-9.75; (301) 495-6720. (Silver Spring)
