Bob Evans said that it was the final coffin nail in the Sinatra-Farrow marriage. Frank didn't want Mia to do the film. He had other plans for her. Evans convinced Mia this role was going to get her an Oscar nomination (it didn't). Sinatra gave her an ultimatum. The rest is history.

It's a visual delight like most of Polanski's stuff. Remember the scene where Minnie Castevet (Ruth Gordon) is making a phone call in the next room to her "special" doctor and she's partially obscured by a door frame? The guy who shot it said, "Roman, we can't see her in frame." Polanski said, "I know. Leave it." The cinematographer went opening night and watched as most of the audience lean sideways trying to look around the door frame.

Project Runway begins tonight!
