The score as well as the camera-...Thanks a lot Sam. The score as well as the camera-work nicely complemented the ominous tone of the film. And what to say about Mia Farrow - she was the film's focal point, and she did more than ample justice to that. By the way, the kind of things that she had to do during the filming process (esp. the scene where she walks across a busy street), made for great reading.Shubhajithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02040495040897333606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2017832040275963428.post-4856091829942308512012-09-24T09:24:38.363+05:302012-09-24T09:24:38.363+05:30Excellent piece here Shubhajit of a horror classic...Excellent piece here Shubhajit of a horror classic! K. Komeda's haunting score is one of the best of it's kind, and Ms. Farrow proves herself up to the vocals. Some of the bizarre supporting characters have been justly celebrated, and the film has delicious and devilish underpinnings. Can't wait for the Criterion blu-ray due next month!

Yup, the film wasn't as much about its scariness-quotient, as it was about the ominous mood, relentless sense of paranoia (as you aptly observed), and a perpetual disconcerting feel for the viewers.Shubhajithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02040495040897333606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2017832040275963428.post-71668353130539876182012-09-21T06:29:03.043+05:302012-09-21T06:29:03.043+05:30Great review.

This flick isn't terribly scary, but it's got a tense and paranoid sense of style that really worked, especially in the last 10 minutes when everything comes full-circle. Pretty freaky stuff here, I must say.Dan O.http://www.dtmmr.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
