How much do you know about Rosemary's Baby? | Quiz

Answer: "All of Them Witches"

This title is later repeated when Rosemary is in the phone booth on her delivery date, trying desperately to contact Dr. Hill. It is the first major indication of her paranoia, and is (in my opinion) the climax of the film.

Answer: "What's that?"

The fact that she cuts her hair in the middle of the film adds an element of reality to the situation. Rosemary goes from being an innocent-looking, happy young girl to a ghastly, very sick-looking woman.

Answer: Steak and cake

One of my favorite scenes is when Minnie is voraciously eating the grotesquely unappealing cake. Her mannerisms are so extravagant and fantastically farcical.

Answer: The ticking of a clock

While many of these noises are commonly heard in the movie, the predominant one is indubitably the ticking of the bedside clock. It seeps into Rosemary's dreams, and can be heard whenever there is a scene in the bedroom (which is the most frequent setting).

Answer: Tony Curtis

This scene, which happens to be my favorite, has a unique quality to it. Polanski was playing a little joke on Mia and used Tony Curtis, a friend of hers, as the voice of Donald Baumgard. The fact that Farrow was acting out the scene, as well as trying to place the familiar voice, adds an element of curtness and intrigue to the dialog.

Answer: "Tanis, anyone?"

A great, cooky scene. Polanski is brilliant.

Answer: The Pope

She actually apologizes for not "coming to see him," and proceeds to explain that she "was bitten by a mouse," meaning Minnie's chocolate mousse. The seamless transitions between dream-reality percepts helps give the film a characteristic fluidity.

Answer: When the nurse says he smells like Tanis Root

When Rosemary's waiting to see the doctor, the nurse complements her on her perfume, saying it's "an improvement on your regular... Maybe the doctor will follow your example," indicating that the doctor, too, occasionally smells like Tanis Root.

Answer: Minnie Castevet

The nun could actually be representative of many things, but in this instance it's Minnie Castevet. She has Minnie's characteristic voice and mannerisms. In this context, Minnie is yelling at Roman about Terry's death; this auditory stimulus is embedded in Rosemary's dream, which initially concerns mainly Terry, death, and religion in general (they all sort of go hand in hand).

Answer: "I can no longer associate myself."

This passage sets a somber, frightening mood upon the scene, hampering Rosemary's delight concerning the apartment and enticing the viewer's curiosity.
