Mia Farrow, paranoid in a phone booth
Sky had not seen this movie, and since the building is pretty much its own character in the film, I decided it counted for our
NYC Movie Marathon. Things I’d forgotten about the movie: Tannis Root, that everything was yellow. Things I remembered: that weirdo devil face, the fact that Mia Farrow was married to Frank Sinatra at the time. New thing I learned: Farrow’s friend Tony Curtis is the voice on the line when she calls the blind actor, and she didn’t know it – result was a nice bit of discomfort in her voice.

December 4, 2008One of the greatest movies ever made. And a lot of it because of the conditions on set escalating the uneasiness factor. Frank served Mia divorce papers on set one day right before she had to do a scene. Also, Anton Lavey, the founder of the Satanic Church, plays the devil.
