A truly classic film where everything appears routine on the surface. Evil is never really visible, but it's always lurking in the shadows. I saw this movie at its release when I was a preteen, and it still gives me the shivers.
One of the great films of all-time. It is actually a combination of dark satire, horror & ocult which puts it in it's own genre. The acting is superb & the story line is simply riveting.
You know that the facts are based on the true. Polanski killed his own wife......it will come out in 2020..........with all the other facts what happened decennia long...........so think twice......it is bizar and nobody believed it.
@@phoenixlogan9344 If you have satanic friends in higher places they can make the murder looks like a accident . Wake up. Look at Hollywood today.......
The end, with the Japanese suit, taking pictures. Like Rosemary's a celebrity. Brilliant touch. Ruth Gordon -- OMG! Without her, the film would be less enjoyable, less creepy, less evil. Great casting. Polanski's now 87 years old. Say what you will about his personal tragedies and screw-ups, but the guy sure could direct actors.
I laugh uncontrollably at Minnie taking her first sip of her Vodka Blush cocktail and going into a coughing fit before she can gasp out “Carpet!” Roman is letting the drink tray drip onto the floor, and she has to immediately kneel down to frantically wipe up the spill with her apron while criticizing her sloppy husband.
In one of the documentaries, Mia Farrow tells the story of an actor - playing the Devil - with cat’s eye contact lenses and reptilian suit, humping away on her. When the various takes were done, he shook her hand and said, “It’s been a pleasure working with you, Miss Farrow.” Farrow herself thought that was very funny, if a bit disconcerting!
Anyone who loves the film is encouraged to seek out videos here discussing it. In one, Mia Farrow revealed that the yellow and white dress she wore was her own! Many other fun tidbits to learn about. The famous Dakota certainly another one. :)
You heard of Stockholm Syndrome? Most of us do the same. Because our instinct is to survive, so we rationalize all the absurd problems and situations thrown at us in order to survive.
This film's true horror was that Rosemary WAS telling the truth about her odd neighbours, yet no one wanted to believe her! This is when we see someone mentally healthy, become paranoid to the point of almost being psychotic and the psychosis was warranted, real, and not figment of her imagination.
Rosemary deserved everything she got, for what she did to that apartment. And I bet I know exactly which one she ruined (well... the one used as her unit, for filming). The shutters are STILL painted white - even on the streetside. Great little video! The imagery is super sharp! I don't think I've ever noticed how clearly we can see the interior of the Dakota. This must be from a remastered version. The woodwork was in SO much better shape, half-a-century ago, when this was filmed, than it is today (refinished to less-than-museum-level standards, in most instances).
Are you sure about that? Because the radiator grille below the window is EXACTLY what's standard in the Dakota - EXACTLY. And the woodwork in Roman & Minnie's apartment is EXACTLY what I've seen in the Dakota (just with a less sleazy/polyurethaned finish than I've seen, since in the intervening decades, the varnish has mostly been replaced).
Rosemary's Baby is more than a cult movie! Don't miss the episode of our docu-series MEET THE HOLLYWOOD COSTUME DESIGNERS, with Anthea Sylbert, Oscar nominated costume designer of Chinatown, Julia & Rosemary's Baby. @
Polanski was like a 'kid in a candy store' casting this film. Not just the old (and at that time somewhat neglected) legendary old film stars such as Sidney Blackmer, Ralph Bellamy, but the old tried and true character actors he loved such as Patsy Kelly, Hope Summers, the legendary Elisha Cook Jr. of film noir fame is perfect here. Hope Summers and Patsy Kelly as WITCHES is sheer genius!

You know, what gets me about movies like this one and The Exorcist, is they make out like Satan has so much power, when in reality, the power is Satan is very minimal compared to the power of the ALMIGHTY GOD.....just sayin'......
For a more visceral, loopier NY horrorshow, check out the Sentinel. Probably copied RB, but so what? Loaded with familiar faces, weird sex, and actual deformities.
Hi. Want a tip on how to be the life of the party? I feel we've known each other long enough that I can trust you with it. Keep it to yourself, okay? Okay. Here's the tip: When you walk into the party, stick out your arm and shout: "HAIL SATAN!"
This film worked because the novel was so compelling and read like a movie. Most of the actor were very good with the major exception of Mia Farrow. Her winey voice and inability to act was bad enough. However, she gets a haircut mid-film where she looks terrible. "It's Vidal Sasson" she screams. And even though it's written to draw you in every time she has a dramatic line it seems comical, "This isn't a dream. This is real".

... and the mastermind of Polanski ...
50 years ago... A masterpiece!!!! My favorite film!

@@CristinavdfV What a load of crap. Polanski was not even in the same continent when she died.
@@phoenixlogan9344 If you have satanic friends in higher places they can make the murder looks like a accident . Wake up. Look at Hollywood today.......
My favorite film ever too.
Saw this in 1968, at my NYC local movie theatre, right after it opened. Lines around the block!
A classic New York movie. Such wonderful direction and perfect use of characters.
I could watch Ruth Gordon over and over, such a unique, talented actress.
yeah, especially when she's eating that piece of cake -- sooo creepy -- she just shoves it into her mouth like some animal.
She was great in My Bodyguard.
It all rested on Mia's shoulders. She carried it under extraordinary circumstances-- Sinatra served her divorce papers on set. A brilliant movie.
The evil hidden in the mundane. A very realist approach to psychological terror and most certainly the beginning of modern horror movies.
Movies like this are why I love film as an art form!
This movie actually made me cry in grief and misery.
oh how I hate that bit of her in the phone box..I want to scream from the rooftops "DON'T TELL HIM WHAT YOU THINK IS GOING ON!!!!!"
The end, with the Japanese suit, taking pictures. Like Rosemary's a celebrity. Brilliant touch.
Ruth Gordon -- OMG! Without her, the film would be less enjoyable, less creepy, less evil. Great casting.
Polanski's now 87 years old. Say what you will about his personal tragedies and screw-ups, but the guy sure could direct actors.
Its still in my top 10 psychological horror films.
"Roman Take You Pill" "Bring me a Root Bear, Roman! Ruth Gordon was awesome......glad she won an Academy Award. Mia should have won one as well.
witches have everyday chores too - root beer, taking their pills, keeping their carpet clean....
@@haintedhouse3052 That is true. And Minnie is one heck of a cook! And she can scrub a dish!
@@NoodlesEaton lol. it may take her hours but that'll be one clean dish.
or at least nominated. even with all her brilliant roles in Woody's films, she's never been nominated.

Dave was the actor Clay Tanner who played the Devil
Mía Farrow was amazing in this role. I am a fan of this wonderful movie, who was so successful on the last 60th. ❤️❤️
I remember seeing this movie when I was 14, I loved it.
Great review with no spoiler.
Mia WENT from Satan to Woody Allen.
Stating recently that she actually PREFERRED Satan.
...
Probably why her personal life has suffered so much. Frank divorced her, and woody went pedo on her. But yeah, she's still got lucifer.
Mia is satanic herself for abusing and manipulating her adopted kids

The old lady holding the black cat was textbook witch. creepy
what's truly evil is how Rosemary accepts evil.
I don’t think she accepts it as much as she is in denial
@@lindacosta3381 More like her Maternal instinct kicks in.
In spite of the spawn of Satan, she is still the mother.
@ja maguire
That's why women go for horrible men versus the tamed one that grandma recommends
You heard of Stockholm Syndrome? Most of us do the same. Because our instinct is to survive, so we rationalize all the absurd problems and situations thrown at us in order to survive.
This is such a bad take in my opinion

Yeah, I didn't like this review either, he missed the whole point of the movie but pointed out the most irrelevant things about it.
Good thing we all have cell phones now
The things you watch, you will keep. Good luck, you'll need it.
Ingenuity of RB is it accumulated insane levels of darkness it keeps reaping the screen apart almost.
Lara Louise...”Roman get her outta here”

Not sure what you're talking about .... but all the interiors were filmed on an L.A. soundstage.

Baby. @
This movie is very disturbing
*I always thought it was about her having the Devil as a baby and all the ppl were either helping or Trying to stop it!*
Rosemary's Baby is primarily a thriller.
Need to watch rosemarys baby’s last part please
My favourite movie 🥀
Amaziiiiiiiiing!!!!

You're spot on.
The scariest part? Aunt Bee’s best friend, Clara, was a satan worshiper! Lordy! And she also made the best pickles.
Versatile actress!
mia was so pretty when she was young
great movie

"Some bad noos".
That's Noo York for you!
Movie is a brilliant...my favourite🌼🌼🌼
I never saw it. Is the 1968 version better or the newer one?
68, though you can feel its a bit technologically off, it's still an ingenious movie
@@droho7597 It's a horrible movie! I wish I could unwatch it. lol
Cheryl Dahl haha no
@@cheryldahl9192 I wish I could unread your comment.
Is the baby seen in the movie?
... as far as I remember it isn't ...
PimpinBassie2 No never seen
Which was a fantastic choice, because one's mind will make the baby a lot scarier than anything they could have put on screen.
Rosemary sees it.
After she screams "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ITS EYES?!!" you kinda have to use your imagination.
What do you mean, Polanski spent 'most' of his childhood in Poland? Where else do you think he was?
Polanski was Polish you muppet.
Is it scary ?
Or is it just suggested
Both.
Why is everybody speaking of Polanski in past tense!?
Because everyone talks about pedophiles in past tense.
You know, what gets me about movies like this one and The Exorcist, is they make out like Satan has so much power, when in reality, the power is Satan is very minimal compared to the power of the ALMIGHTY GOD.....just sayin'......
God is higher but Satan walks amongst us. That's why it's scary
@@Belihoney Even Satan is under Gods command.
May the power of Chrysler propel you!

Polański *is* Jewish, he's alive 11 years after you published this.
Polanski is a Holocaust survivor. Yes, he is Jewish.
Hi. Want a tip on how to be the life of the party?
I feel we've known each other long enough that I can trust you with it.
Keep it to yourself, okay?
Okay.
Here's the tip:
When you walk into the party, stick out your arm and shout: "HAIL SATAN!"
I prefer The Fearless Vampire Hunters.
Like the Wizard of Oz, the movie is just Rosemary's bad dream, but it's a great ride.
Umm, no... it doesn't turn out to be a dream at the end.
Actually, in THIS movie, it most certainly is NOT a dream; that's the whole point of the story.
No. You missed the whole point.
Sort of precursor film to The Exorcist.
This film worked because the novel was so compelling and read like a movie. Most of the actor were very good with the major exception of Mia Farrow. Her winey voice and inability to act was bad enough. However, she gets a haircut mid-film where she looks terrible. "It's Vidal Sasson" she screams. And even though it's written to draw you in every time she has a dramatic line it seems comical, "This isn't a dream. This is real".
How precious are you!
