Rosemary’s Baby

ZOE SALDANA IS A MODERN MOM IN “ROSEMARY’S BABY” REMAKE

The original 1968 film of “Rosemary’s Baby” is probably the only reason to admire director Roman Polanski. Mia Farrow brilliantly played her character as such an ordinary New Yorker, that the story was even more horrifying. The movie is still almost perfect, but someone always thinks a remake is a good idea. The NEW miniseries of Rosemary’s Baby stars Zoe Saldana and will show on NBC in two parts on May 11 and 15, with each segment two hours long. So it’s a bit longer than the original. Does the trailer make you want to tune in?

KATIE HOLMES FEELS LIKE SHE’S RELIVING “ROSEMARY’S BABY”

Back in 2006 we wrote about the similarities in Katie Holmes’ life and the movie “Rosemary’s Baby. At the time we weren’t taken particularly seriously, but US magazine just brought up the comparison again. For those who don’t remember the exact plot of Rosemary’s Baby, here’s a movie synopsis from Yahoo :

“A young married couple, trying unsuccessfully to conceive, finally have it happen when the husband strikes a deal with the devil worshippers next door. All of this is unbeknownst to the poor wife/mother who soon realizes she could be having Satan’s child.”

In the movie, Rosemary’s husband is lured into the cult to help his career – he was a struggling ACTOR. The newlywed couple lived in New York and was surrounded by helpful cult members while she was pregnant. When she became pregnant the cult was convinced it was the rebirth of their leader – satan. When Katie was pregnant, there was Scientology speculation that L Ron Hubbard‘s soul would return in her child because her husband is so high ranking in the cult.
It is gratifying to know we were on the right track with this even if it’s somewhat tongue in cheek. There ARE similarities, to be sure. We wonder if Katie has seen this very special movie.

HERE IS THE ORIGINAL "ROSEMARY'S BABY" STORY ABOUT TOM CRUISE

This story was posted in May, 2006, and Andrew Morton, the author of “Tom Cruise: The Unauthorized Biography” called us to discuss it and other matters when he was researching his book. We asked him not to credit us because books can be problematic legally and we are afraid of the Scientologists. You read it here first!

We hear that Suri Cruise is being closely watched by the Scientologists because she COULD turn out to be L Ron Hubbard reincarnated! It brings to mind Rosemary’s Baby, doesn’t it? Anyway, the Scientology bunch has been eagerly awaiting the return of their departed spiritual leader. They believe when a Scientologist dies that they select a baby’s body and take over the soul. When the baby grows up it is drawn to Scientology.

They calculate that Hubbard would select a very special child in which to make his return. Tom Cruise and Katie would be ideal parents for an L Ron Hubbard baby. Consequently they are looking for any sign that Suri has a link to Hubbard. Most likely they’ll have to wait until Suri can talk and begins her auditing classes. Who knows? She might start quoting passages from Dianetics.

For those of you who think my reference to Rosemary’s Baby is far-fetched: Here’s a synopsis of the movie from Yahoo:

“A young married couple, trying unsuccessfully to conceive, finally have it happen when the husband strikes a deal with the devil worshippers next door. All of this is unbeknownst to the poor wife/mother who soon realizes she could be having Satan’s child.”

I rest my case!

TOM CRUISE TELL-ALL IS BOUND TO RILE UP SCIENTOLOGISTS

“Tom Cruise: An Unauthorized Biography” by Andrew Morton is bound to be a bombshell when it hits book stores next week. What makes the book most fascinating are the ways in which Scientology controls Tom Cruise’s life. From the excerpts we’ve seen, the book seems to be very accurate. We were flattered to note that Morton prominently featured information from this website – specifically our “Rosemary’s Baby” theory. Back in May of 2006, we wrote about a discussion we had with former Scientologists about the comparison between the movie and Suri’s birth. Morton read the posting and later contacted us – we talked about that posting and other related issues. We asked not to be quoted, because, frankly, we are afraid of Scientologists. Since Andrew Morton has gone into hiding, we suspect he is too.
