The cat got friendly. It was the horniest cat I had ever met! She would make the weirdest sounds, you would think from a distance that it was a woman or a child! Sign up for THR news straight to your inbox every day. May 11, pm. Logo text. Related Stories. Read More About: Zoe Saldana.
TV Star Noele Gordon. Cinematography by Michel Amathieu is well lit and looks professional. The problem that I have is that such horror film, thriller, and such look like cheap CW television shows when not filmed on film stock. That is my problem, but I just cannot adjust to the look of Gothic story painted on such a canvas.
Otherwise, Zoe Saldana Rosemary hands in her usual above board acting job, but I must admit that I never liked Mia Farrows work, I found her to be without depth.
So Ms. Saldana did not have to reach far, into her vast acting repertoire, to out act shallow Farrow, nevertheless she gave the part a good shove in the right direction.
Adams Guy , on the other hand, had to compete with John Cassavetes who was amazing in the role. He did not really rise to it, but his part was limited to very few emotions That's it for comparisons to the Polanski flick, other than I live across the street from the Dakota and it will always be the Rosemary's Baby building to me.
The building in the film has an equally eerie facade and the inside with its maze of connecting rooms create a sinister set from Ms. Saldana to explore. OK that is enough comparisons!!! It is hard, is it not? Taking on a classic film and putting it on television makes it impossible not to compare.
As far as subject matter, does it really fit today's sensibilities. Whereas the Polanski film places loose with the supernatural overtones, this film jumps right in to all the trimmings of a full-out horror tale.
It is a tragedy where the hero is consumed by the evil it seemed innocent enough to overcome. The hero is not saved by innocence, she is destroyed because of it. The underlining theme of both the book and this film not so much in Polanski's tale is betrayal.
Rosemary is ultimately betrayed by her new friends, her apartment, her husband and finally herself. She is dammed. Does that make sense in a secular world where religion is greatly deflated? Maybe not everyone's cup of tea anymore. Finally, this was produced by Saldana and her family. Perhaps that was too much, in the end, for her to chew. Beginthebeguine Aug 24, Details Edit. Release date May 11, United States. With four hours in which to let the story breathe, Rosemary's Baby has the potential to be a worthy modern take on Levin's novel, and Saldana is a solid casting choice for the lead.
We look forward to seeing the first trailer. Hannah has been with Screen Rant since , covering news, features, movie premieres, Comic-Con and more!
