stunning, but give the author his due

Rating: Null/10 (3 November 2000)

rosemary's baby remains a brilliant crafted, beautifully acted and shot work..a thoroughly haunting and riveting modern horror story. my only quibble...literally every line, character and production design detail from the film is lifted directly from ira levin's novel. shouldn't he have been given some credit on the screenplay, along with roman polanski? i don't think there's a word in this one not taken from the book. bravo, levin! and how wise of the filmmaker to realize it so faithfully.
