Zoë Kravitz doesn’t want to throw the Rosemary’s Baby out with the bathwater. In an Esquire profile, she discussed loving work from accused/alleged/convicted bad people. Kravitz was specifically talking about her love of Roman Polanski’s Rosemary’s Baby and The Tenant .
Or rather, two movies directed by that man but not solely his work. Film is a collaborative medium, after all. “It’s OK that somebody bad was involved in something good,” she said.
“What are we supposed to do, get rid of America?” Fair enough, a lot of people who made America suck ass. Kravitz’s directorial debut , Blink Twice (f.k.
a. Pussy Island ) is at least partially about the murky moral navigations that late stage capitalist America forces on people. The film centers on a woman (Naomi Ackie) going to a tech billionaire’s freaky island.
