Roman Polanski Box Set

ROMAN POLANSKI COLLECTION.

ROSMARY'S BABY.
Possibly The Best Horror Film Ever Made, This Brilliant Adaptation Of Ira Levin's Best-Selling Novel Is The Story
Of A Loving Young New York City Couple Who Are Expecting Their First Child. Like Most First-Time Mothers,
Rosemary (Mia Farrow) Experiences Confusion And Fear. Her Husband (John Cassavetes), An Ambitious But
Unsuccessful Actor, Makes A Pact With The Devil That Promises To Send His Career Skyward. Director Roman
Polanski Elicits Uniformly Extraordinary Performances From The All-Star Cast. Ruth Gordon Won An Oscar
For Her Performance As An Oversolicitous Next-Door Neighbour In This Classic Chiller.

THE TENANT.
An Apartment With An Unhappy Past, In A Building Filled With Faintly Sinister Residents, Sets The Stage For
Filmaker Roman Polanski's Riveting Thriller THE TENANT. Polanski Plays Trelkovsky, A Quiet, Timid File Clerk
Whose Unremarkable Life Becomes Increasingly Overshadowed With Dread And Fear After He Moves Into His
New Home. Adding To His Paranoia Are The Building's Other Occupants, Who Do Nothing To Alleviate His
Growing Obsession With The Untimely, Tragic Fate Of The Apartments's Previous Tenant. Is Trelkovsky's Dread
Truly Justified-Or Is It Simply The Result Of His Seemingly Disintegrating Mental State? A Brilliant International
Cast (Isabelle Adjani, Melvyn Douglas, Jo Van Fleet, Bernard Fresson, Lila Kedrova, Shelley Winters) And
Polanski's Own Penchant For Packaging And Delivering Unprecedented Suspense (REPULSION, ROSEMARY'S
BABY, CHINATOWN) Make THE TENANT A Haunting, Riveting Film Classic!.

Climate Of Pre-War Los Angeles. Hired By A Beautiful Socialite (Faye Dunaway) To Investigate Her Husband's
Extramarital Affair, Gittes Unknowingly Stumbles Across A Web Of Double-Dealings And Deceit. What At First

Political Scandal, Widespread Corruption And Dark Family Secrets That All Come To Light, One Night
In Chinatown.
