Rosemary Woodhouse: Tannis anyone?
Rosemary's Baby
~Ira Levin
A few years back, hubby and I went to see this movie at the Orinda theater. The audience was packed with hipsters and their parents, and it was a fun crowd to watch. As the movie progressed the young ones reacted like they had never seen this terrific horror movie before. By the groans, it was clear, they hated Rosemary's husband. And who wouldn't? He, in my opinion, was one of the top ten movie jerks of all time! When the movie was over, there was a great audience interaction with the owners of the theater. As it turns out, 80% of the hipsters had not seen the before! Adding to the fun, Cupcakes were donated by a little bakery shop around the corner. The cupcakes were arranged in the shape of the baby Rosemary's baby carriage and I won the right front wheel, for answering a question about the author of the book, Ira Levin.
Question: What other book of Ira Levin's
was made into a horror movie, released in 1975?
Easy!
Answer: The Stepford Wives!
The rest is history. So, if you have never seen Rosemary's Baby, I am not going to spoil it for you, but please watch it. Truly, it's one of the best horror movies ever!
