Rosemarys Baby - poster
Do you like Rosemary’s Baby but didn’t get to see it in the theater? Well my friend, you’re in luck! This weekend (Feb 17-19th) The Nevermore Film Festival will be showing the 35 mm version of Rosemary’s Baby at the Carolina Theatre in Durham, NC. You can catch it Friday evening or Sunday at noon. Last year we premiered Scarecrow at Midnight at Nevermore. We had a great time. We stayed the entire weekend and watch tons of movies including Silence of the Lambs!
Rosemary’s Baby was released in 1968 and stars Mia Farrow, John Cassavetes and Ruth Gordon. The film was directed by Roman Polanski and produced by none other than Robert Evans. I like this movie and also like all of Robert Evan’s stories about some of the drama he went through to get it made. One of these incidents involved Frank Sinatra telling Mia Farrow (his wife at the time) that if she stayed in the picture, then he would divorce her. Mr. Evans tells that he showed her footage of the film and she decided to finish the film. He also tells that Sinatra had divorce papers delivered to the set.

Rosemary's Baby - Mia Farrow
Rosemary’s Baby is about a young couple that move into a new apartment. They have odd neighbors that are very interested in Rosemary and her unborn baby. She becomes mysteriously pregnant and gets paranoid. Let’s start off with the trailer and then we’ll move on to some cool interviews.
Here is an interesting video about Mia Farrow and Roman Polanski:
This doesn’t really talk about Rosemary’s Baby, but is shows Robert Evans being himself.
