A perfect Father's Day gift
Three classic films from acclaimed director, Roman Polanski. In
'Rosemary's Baby' (1968), Mia Farrow stars as Rosemary, a young
wife whose husband (John Cassavetes), an actor, falls in with a
group of Satanists. When Rosemary becomes pregnant, she begins to
suspect that she may be carrying the child of the Devil. In 'The
Tenant' (1976), when Trelkovsky (Polanski) rents a decrepit, barren
flat he discovers that the flat's previous occupant, a young girl,
had leaped to her death from its window. Intrigued, he begins to
obsess about the girl and convinces himself that the other tenants
of the building are trying to drive him to self-murder as well. But
has Trelkovsky really only inherited the girl's suicidal urges?
Finally, in 'Chinatown' (1974), private eye Jake Gittes (Jack
Nicholson) is hired to follow water commissioner Hollis Mulwray
(Darrell Zwerling), only to see him turn up dead at the bottom of a
reservoir. Realising he has been used, Gittes confronts Mulwray's
widow Evelyn (Faye Dunway), a woman who seems to have plenty of
secrets of her own, not least her ambiguous relationship with her
father Noah Cross (John Huston).
