Polanski is best at shooting from the beginning of a common Hollywood, and gradually telling the story beyond recognition and thrilling. Popular themes of love, family, and adventure, unknowingly, make people restless and creepy. Whether it's atmosphere creation or details, in short, he fully grasps what makes the audience weave a net of horror and then get into it by himself. method. Perhaps it was because of the horror torment he lived in his heart all the year round?
Rosemary found a decent apartment with her newlywed husband Guy, and the old couple in the neighbor next door was also very nice, but apparently they got along better with her husband. Guy is an actor who doesn't play a role, and suddenly turned into a regular job due to frequent accidents with the original actor. Neighbors always make strange noises and always feed them strange things. The person I just met died inexplicably, as if he was trying to say something. The husband's whereabouts are getting more and more wrong. Rosemary wanted to figure out what was going on, but after a nightmare, she became pregnant and everything was gone. Since then, the old couple cared more about themselves and introduced a more weird obstetrician. Under the care of the doctor, not only her body became thinner, but her spirit also became weak. She had to wonder what kind of doctor the doctor was, what kind of womb she was pregnant with, and whether the original nightmare was just a nightmare...
This film will be translated into "Baby Lost", which is closely related to the final horror at the end of the film. But what is even more frightening is the expression of infinite compassion on Rosemary's face after the truth is revealed. The human heart is always darker than the devil.
On the surface, this film is about how to face temptation and distinguish evil, but what really makes the audience want to stop is its daily nature. Evil is not harder to encounter than a good neighbor, and the person next to the pillow is not more reliable than an old friend. Evil does not even need special circumstances and rituals, because its residence is right here with you and me.
The opening song "Sleep Safe and Warm" fits perfectly with the temperament of the whole film. The sweet and slightly hoarse voice is full of dangers. It is not only a lullaby, but also a requiem.
By the way, the head of the boy starring Mia Farrow is said to have been cut by Master Sassoon. The helpless and pitiful appearance under the strong surface made this style popular for a while.

Rosemary's Baby quotes

  • Terry Gionoffrio: The Castevets are the most wonderful people in the world. Bar none. You know, they picked me up off the sidewalk - literally.

    Rosemary Woodhouse: You were sick?

    Terry Gionoffrio: I was starving and on dope and doing a lot of other things. They're childless, though. I'm like the daughter they never had. At first, I thought they wanted me for some kind of sex thing; but, they turned out to be like real grandparents.

  • Guy Woodhouse: If we get friendly with an old couple like that, we'll never get rid of them.
