MOVIE OF THE WEEK #1: Rosemary’s Baby

Rosemary’s Baby (1968), directed by Roman Polanski and adapted from Ira Levin’s novel of the same name, is the story of… well, Rosemary (Mia Farrow), a quiet housewife who finds herself in for a hellish nine months when she learns that she’s pregnant. As the weeks roll on, she begins to notice dramatic, concerning changes in both her health and the behavior of the people around her, causing poor Rosemary’s world to spiral slowly into madness as she starts to suspect that something diabolical is afoot…

A movie that must be seen to be believed, Rosemary’s Baby plunges its victims into the deepest depths of an ocean of paranoia. Nothing is ever quite as it seems and not one person Rosemary encounters ever seems totally on the level. Everyone is fair game as the film twists and turns, contorting itself and its characters in just the right ways to keep you on your toes. It’s a horror movie that challenges its audience not simply to endure but to think, instilling viewers with a wicked sense of uncertainty that just builds and builds until it reaches a fever pitch when the film finally lets you in on its sinister secrets.

Simply put, you won’t find many horror movies that get under your skin like Rosemary’s Baby. Great writing, direction, and acting all conspire to make this gem feel delightfully evil. It’s required viewing for any horror fan.

Portrait of Francis Williams, The Jamaican Scholar

England (c. 1745)

[placard reads: Francis Williams (about 1710-about 1770) was a mathemetician and poet, who may have been educated in England. He set up a school in Spanish Town and his portrait shows him as a scholar in a study. This is a convention also used in the ivory relief of Matthew Rapet, shown nearby.]

From the Victoria and Albert Museum:

Francis Williams was born around 1700 to John and Dorothy Williams, a free black couple in Jamaica. John Williams had been freed by the will of his former master and within ten years was able to acquire property. As free blacks the Williams family were increasingly in the minority as Jamaica’s sugar industry, which relied on the labour of enslaved Africans, grew over the course of the 18th century. Even less common were educated black people. However, John Williams’ independent wealth ensured that Francis and his brothers received an education.
