Reviews
Provides a fascinating look at the inspired choices -- and lucky breaks -- that made the film iconic., On the film's 50th anniversary,this study and the unseen behind-the-scenes saga is almost as unsettling as the movie itself., From the start, people sensed that there was something real and unreal about the movie. It did not feel or seem like other horror flicks. It was beautiful, languid, a fever dream you suspect is really happening, like Hitchcock on LSD., In a genre best known for its gruesome and grisly tropes, Rosemary's Baby made the realm of the supernatural all too plausible in a delectable mixture of the mystical and the mundane.

Synopsis
The birthing of Rosemary's Baby behind the scenes, 50 years on This Is No Dream: Making Rosemary's Baby is a definitive, illustrated history of Roman Polanski's great 1968 film, from director and casting choices to the kudos and condemnation it received upon its release. During its making, Polanski fell seriously behind schedule and was almost fired; star Mia Farrow faced an ultimatum--career or marriage--from husband Frank Sinatra; and actor John Cassavetes nearly came to blows with his genius director. Photographer Bob Willoughby--a veteran special set photographer who shot for such movies as Ocean's 11 (1960), Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (1966) and The Graduate (1967)--captured it all, along with other studio photographers. The story begins with author Ira Levin, who was struck with the idea that "a fetus could be an effective horror if the reader knew it was growing into something malignly different from the baby expected." He set his story in present-day Manhattan, he made the mother-to-be a young woman who had just moved into a mysterious apartment building with her actor husband and he had the baby's father just happen to be the devil incarnate. And with that, Rosemary's Baby was born. For most of 1967, Levin's novel rested comfortably in the top ten of the New York Times bestseller list. It was practically a given that a movie version would be made and, by August 1967, cameras were ready to roll. On June 12, 1968, Rosemary's Baby hit American theaters. This book, commemorating the 50th anniversary of this landmark picture, features Bob Willoughby's work, with many of his behind-the-scenes images presented here for the first time., The birthing of Rosemary's Baby : behind the scenes, 50 years on This Is No Dream: Making Rosemary's Baby is a definitive, illustrated history of Roman Polanski's great 1968 film, from director and casting choices to the kudos and condemnation it received upon its release.

If you are a producer, director, screenwriter or performer, you pray for a well-received and financially successful film. On June 12, 1968, prayers were answered. Rosemary's Baby hit American theatres.
