What bothered me the most was not the birth of Satan's child, nor the suffocating intrusion of evil, but at the end, Rosemary was completely alone and had no choice but to raise this so-called evil child. Woolen cloth? What's more, the connection between the mother and the child will never be cut off, even if the child has Satan's eyes and fluffy hands and feet. The scary part of the movie is not in the phantasmagoria, but in the real relationship between people: how a woman is deceived, used, enslaved, and finally has to accept the bloody truth. The lies of the evil organization engulfed Rosemary step by step like this:
1. Neighbors are sincere and enthusiastic, but negative information is looming
Rosemary doesn't know much about her neighbors, and her intuitive impression is that she is kind, warm, friendly, caring and helpful. People's judgments of people start from impressions, but this is often the source of errors. Impression is not the essence of a person, only history is. Although Rosemary has no direct information about the history of the old neighbors, she has some indirect information. After talking with their adopted daughter for a few minutes, she learned about Tannisgen, the mysterious mascot, and heard the strangeness in the middle of the night. The sound of chanting, and the adopted daughter jumped off the building to commit suicide soon after... Thinking about it carefully, although there is no real hammer, at least it can be judged that it is all negative information, at least one should be careful. It was really obvious when the old couple gave her the same mascot as the dead adopted daughter. Not to mention that the old lady came to hang out at the house almost every day, what would a normal neighbor be like? Isn't that what surveillance is? Although wrapped in "caring" coats, Rosemary's freedom has actually been violated. For this kind of violation, she let it go, and naturally fell into the arms of these people.
2. The lover is the same as before, but he attaches great importance to his neighbors
The lover was bribed from the start, but behaved normally from start to finish, and even more so to Rosemary. His betrayal is reflected in some details, such as the old couple next door whom he only met after introduction, but he is more interested in them than Rosemary; for example, the news of his wife's pregnancy should be told to the old couple immediately; for example If the wife wants to change the doctor, the old couple must agree, and so on. It's weird to hear the neighbor's name so many times from a man in charge, no matter how you think, "one's will is affected by the will of another", which is by no means a free, normal state.
3. The friend hesitates to speak, and is about to meet and suddenly falls into a coma
Hess was Rosemary's only loyal friend, and he was the first to discover the negative information in Part One. He was killed when he found books about witches and made an appointment with Rosemary to tell her the truth in person. From a relational point of view, if she can realize that it is a group that violated her, then the murder of members of this group is definitely inseparable from the group, and there is no need for direct evidence. In the final analysis, one cannot give up the right to doubt others just because there is no evidence. As long as the innocence cannot be proved, there is at least suspicion. The only friend was killed, indicating that the crisis is very serious.
4. The truth is close at hand, and I am determined to escape, but it is too late
Rosemary wasn't a cover after all, and at the prompt of her dead friend, she finally found out what was wrong. She left the obstetrician and gynecologist appointed by the old couple and turned to the obstetrician and gynecologist recommended by a friend for help. It was a wise choice, and it seemed like the only way out of misery. But who would have thought that the tentacles of evil organizations could reach so far? When the only way back was cut off, I knew that she had no way to escape, and she was controlled at home again. Perhaps, if she asks the police for help, the ending will be better. For such private organizations, the sphere of government is more or less one of the few inviolable spheres. But there really shouldn't be too many demands on such a helpless and poor Rosemary.
5. The facts have been formed, even if it is cruel, how can it be
The child was finally born. At this time, everyone around her was from an evil organization, and they even lied to her that the child was gone. Rosemary, who became a mother, finally had a little bit of strength. She found a secret passage designed by the old couple and went straight to the place where the party was organized. There, her child was in a black veil-covered cradle, and upon closer inspection, she was the devil she had seen in her dream when she was violated. She broke down, she cried, she didn't know what to do. The old man next door gave her a choice: not to join the organization, to be the mother of the child. She is already the mother of the child! Rosemary looked at the child, the smile of love slowly oozing out, surrounded by the weird and flattering smiles of all the old men of the evil organization.
The wind started at the end of Qingping, and the truth lies in the details. Intuition lie should always have flaws, it is easy to see through, but this is not the case. In particular, lies always prefer people, because liars are alert, meticulous, and bold, able to advance and retreat, and occasionally come up with a hard-to-find trick; while good people always tend to believe others, and there are both positive and negative information at the same time. At times, I always look at positive things, and I can't make up my mind to correct vague things. I am afraid of wronging others and embarrassing others. Isn't that the favorite prey of liars? In fact, why should there be any sympathy and leeway for these bad guys! If you have more sympathy, you are digging an extra hole for yourself. Your weakness is the best weapon for the bad guys! The tragedy of Rosemary in this film is textbook. A few words of advice: ① Your own freedom, do not give in an inch. No matter what reason others use, even if it is out of love and goodwill, one's own freedom to manage and live life cannot be violated. This cannot be sloppy. The will of others has no right to interfere with one's own will. Once violated, even a little bit violations must be resolutely defended. Rosemary's freedom is being eroded bit by bit. ② Ambiguous things must be made clear. In many cases, what others say may be a lie, but no direct evidence can be found. Do not doubt others, it seems that something is wrong; doubt others, but it is unreasonable. At this time, on the one hand, you still have to be suspicious, because although you won't make judgments, at least your feelings are negative; on the other hand, you must try your best to make things clear, and you must not rub sand in your eyes. ③ To avoid fighting alone. In the face of lies, the disadvantage of fighting alone is obvious. First of all, there is a lack of information. What you hear is what others want you to hear. Even if you have doubts, it is not easy to say anything. There are many friends and information sources. Naturally it is different. This is even more true from the perspective of struggle. In modern society, the resources that a person can mobilize are too limited, and it is different with a group of friends. ④ Regardless of right or wrong, victory or defeat is very important.I have never liked to judge things based on the innate standard of good and evil. Just like this movie, everyone said that Satan is evil, but is Satan really scary? No, it's a human being, a living human being. These people violated Rosemary's freedom; facing these people, although Rosemary fought, her will failed, and she became the enslaved one. Is it shameful to give birth to Satan? not necessarily. But being enslaved is shameful and even more pitiful. She is the one who failed.
