They just don't make them like that anymore! Theres actually a plot w/charchters & no horny teens who we know are gonna get hacked! Ruth Gordon in that & the guy who played her husband were just incredible!Wasn't crazy with John Casvettes.Robert Evans said in his book the Kid stays in the Picture he wanted either Reford or Warren Beatty for the part.I think either would have been better than Cassevettes!
The film had very little violence & I don't think more than 2 swear words & some brief nudity.The subject matter,tension, & suspense just made you twist in your seat.
Say what you will about Polanski,but he is a GREAT film maker!On another message board I read a rumor that Anne Rice wants him to do one of her Vampire Chronicles next & he's VERY interested.Of course, New Orleans will have to be built on a soundstage in Europe,but I think Polanski could bring some integrity back to the horror genre if he does "The Vampire Lestat" or one of her books.The suspense of Rosemary's Baby with the settle humor of Fearless Vampire Killers.
