What do you consider to be my "evident and strong bias" concerning Anton's claimed _Rosemary's Baby_ involvement? I think I have consistently given him full [and indeed more detailed and fact-filled than any other source] credit for media with which he was genuinely involved (such as _The Devil's Rain_). In the case of _RB_ the facts refuting his claimed involvement are documented from the various sources as cited, take them or leave them. Actually I could add another one: Anton repeatedly claimed that the Devil's eyes which flash onto the screen near the end of the movie were his. Years later movies began to be released on videocassette, and then it was possible to freeze-frame those eyes - - and see that they were artificial "cat's eyes" with vertical pupils. >would think that your statements would be more >believable if they came directly from Polanski, etc. You don't consider _RB_ Producers Gene Gutowski and William Castle reliable sources? Couple of other _RB_ tidbits: Polanski originally wanted Rosemary & Guy to be played by Tuesday Weld & Robert Redford, and the role of Dr. Saperstein to be played by Castle himself. [A vestige of this remains in Castle's cameo appearance, standing next to the phone booth in which Rosemary makes a call.] The remarkable soundtrack to the film was composed by Christopher Komeda, who had written the scores for most of Polanski's previous films. He died of a blood clot in the brain in 1969, aged 37. The soundtrack was eventually re-released on CD (Tsunami TSU-0116), but I have never been able to decipher the words to the included song "Rosemary's Party". If anyone here knows them, it would be an interesting anecdote to post them. Michael A.
