...casting is both daring and first-rate. Altman has somehow made an ensemble out of a group that includes (in no particular order of significance) Lillian Gish, Pat McCormick, Howard Duff, Vittorio Gassman, Dina Merrill, Nina van Pallandt, Lauren Hutton, Mia Farrow, Geraldine Chaplin, Desi Arnaz Jr., Amy Stryker, Paul Dooley, various veterans of his stock company and a title card full of newcomers. They are all wonderful. If someone deserves to be singled out, it is Carol Burnett, who plays the bride's up tight but restless mother. For her to appear in this film took guts...

...only real evidence of professionalism comes from Cinematographer Mike Chapman (Taxi Driver), who has shot New York's mean streets in his usual lucid way. The cast varies from bad to worse. Heroine Tisa Farrow speaks as if she were a spaced-out extra on furlough from Blow-Up.

As the hero, a schizo prone to gesturing with his mouth while banging at the keyboard, Keitel gives the first terrible performance of his career...

Which points up another advantage of attracting film makers: besides being good business, hanging out with movie people...

Rosemary's Baby. This Polanski effort, made back when Mia Farrow was still Big Frank's wife, is simply awful film fare. The case of the beautiful young actor's wife who bears the child of the devil, with the aid of the creepy people downstairs and tanin leaves, is just boring--the sense of horror builds so slowly the movie passes like a bad dream. Farrow gives a jittery, flittery performance; I leave it to you to place the blame--can she act, or is it merely what she has to work with? This film goes over like...
