Can I just talk about how much I love Rosemary's Baby? And how I'm so happy that it's getting a Criterion release? I decided to watch it because of Mia Farrow's pixie cut but I ended up getting much more out of it than just hair inspiration.
I thought Rosemary's Baby was going to be a flat out horror film, with gore and everything. I was pleasantly surprised when the film turned out to be more suspenseful rather than scary, driving more like a Hitchcock film than anything else.
Mia Farrow is the star and the driving point of the film. She was quite amazing as the frail yet protective Rosemary Woodhouse. I applaud her performance.
I knew right after watching the film that it would be one of my favorites. I'm excited to get the new Criterion release to watch the masterpiece in full BLU-RAY.
