Roman Polański, Mia Farrow – „Rosemaries Baby“ (1968)

In einem Jahr, das auch filmhistorisch zwischen Aufbruch und Abgrund lag, hat dieser Film Roman Polański 1968 endgültig zu einer Schlüsselfigur des internationalen Kinos gemacht. Zuvor hatte der in Paris geborene und in Polen aufgewachsene Regisseur schon mit „Das Messer im Wasser“ (1962) und „Ekel“ (1965) gezeigt, dass er das Spiel mit psychologischem Druck und räumlicher Enge meisterhaft beherrscht. Mit diesem Horrorfilm gelang ihm der Sprung nach Hollywood – und gleichzeitig wurde es der Beginn seiner lebenslangen Ambivalenz zwischen Genie und moralischem Skandal. (ARD, Wh.)

Tonight's unriffed #movie should have been. Project X, a 1968 #WilliamCastle #film, is just a mess. The star, Christopher George, spends most of the movie asleep. Hanna Barbera got involved for the dream sequences. So much exposition. But Henry Jones and Harold Gould are always fun to see. And the drawer of miscellaneous brain parts is hilarious. Probably William Castle's worst.

Watching THE TINGLER (1959) starring the incomparable Vincent Price.

Q: who decided to place a doily on top of the old rusted safe? A doily on a safe. I love it.

Gotta love William Castle though. His movies were major 1950s cheese-fests.

William Castle's Undertow (1949). Tony has a flirtation in Reno with a pretty schoolteacher but he's on his way to Mary his sweetheart whose uncle is a gangster, Tony's a nice guy with a shady past and now he's framed for murder. Enjoyable.
