An apartment with an
unhappy past, in a
building filled with faintly sinister residents, set the stage for
filmmaker Roman Polanski's riveting thriller, The Tenant. Polanski plays
Trelkovsky, a
quiet, timid file clerk increasingly overshadowed with dread and fear
after he moves into his new home. Adding to
his paranoia are the building's
other occupants, who do nothing to
alleviate his growing obsession with the untimely,
tragic fate of the apartment's
previous tenant. Is Trelkovsky's dread truly justified-or is it
simply the result
of his seemingly disintegrating mental state? A brilliant international cast
(Isabelle Adjani, Melvyn Douglas, Jo Van Fleet, Bernard Fresson, Lila Kedrova,
Shelley Winters) and Polanski's
own penchant for
packaging and delivering
unprecedented suspense (Repulsion, Rosemary's Baby, Chinatown) make The
Tenant a
haunting, riveting film classic!
