  I hardly think that "Rosemary's Baby" and "Chinatown" are medicore.

    Chinatown has legs, but the Baby is as empty as they come. If you put the Repultion in its place, you would have an argument.

      Chinatown doesn't have any legs, very overrated film. The Pianist: pretentious crap, Lina Wertmuller's Seven Beauties is a much better story of survival during WWII.

        But the Chinatown is entertaining.

  I am not a fan of the piano, I think the one he made prior to that -Raba Liubvi, was his best work. Largely due to a great cast he assembled there.

  But yes, mostly a pale career, except the Burnt by the Sun scored high in the West. And it does have good moments.

  Polanski... yes, the Knife was great, but of course most here would say the Chinatown was the high point of his career... followed of course by an outright dreck of Pianist.
