1. Will French people, especially Parisians, be very drunk watching this film? 2. Polanski probably saw Max Ophüls' "Le Plaisir" during his time in France. Notice how the first long shot at the beginning of "The Tenant" resembles the long shot around the building window shortly after the second story in "Joy"; 3. Also, the jumping off the building in "The Tenant" How similar is the subjective top view of the jumper to the top view of the heroine of the third story in "Joy" when she jumps off the building. 4. Poles and Jews are indeed discriminated against in Paris, and this problem still exists today. 5. Today, Muslims and Eastern European immigrants are expected to be odd tenants if they live among French supporters of the far-right, and vice versa: when whites live in ghettos.
