Rosemary's Baby

Audio problem: Guy flushes the toilet as he walks through the bathroom. The toilet is actually empty and the sound is an over-dub because there is no resistance on the handle when he pushes it down. Had an old toilet like that actually been full you would see the resistance in the lever as the flapper inside rises. (00:04:45)

????

Audio problem: As she straightens up the living room, Rosemary has a delayed reaction to the over-dub of the phone ringing as they get the shocking news about Donald Baumgart. (00:33:35)

????

Audio problem: As they walk together, Rosemary has a talk with Hutch about Guy's new part and she says, "suddenly he's hot" but it comes out as "suddenly he's hopt". The close captioning also reads "hot". (00:35:35)

????

Audio problem: Guy who is watching TV says, "It's the Pope at Yankee Stadium" and if you look at his lips he's saying something else. (00:40:55)

????

Audio problem: Rosemary eats some raw meet and throws up in her sink. We hear the sound of the running water but they neglected to over-dub the sound of her throwing up. (01:14:20)

????

Audio problem: After the party Rosemary tells Guy that she wants to go to Dr. Hill for a second opinion but explains that she doesn't want to change doctors. Guy says, "I won't let you do it Ro", but if you listen closely to what he's actually saying he calls her "Rome". (01:21:25)

????

Continuity mistake: Rosemary quick fries half a piece of steak but by the time it gets from the frying pan into her plate it's a different piece without the chunk of fat attached to the side. (01:01:15)

Trivia: The bystanders looking at the camera when Rosemary crosses the street were staring in disbelief as Mia Farrow actually wandered out into oncoming traffic! Polanski did not want to "stage" the scene, so she was literally risking her life.

Question: When Rosemary gets into the Castavets right at the end, she walks past a man, and then the man says something. She then replies "Be quiet, you're still in [some location]" What was that about...?

Hamster

Chosen answer: Roman Castavet is trying to get Rosemary's attention, and she says "Be quiet, you're in Dubrovnik, I can't hear you". That was in reference to the fact that Roman and Minnie were supposed to have gone to Majorca or Dubrovnik after she found out that Roman was supposedly dying (which was just a lie Rosemary was told so she wouldn't suspect them when her baby was taken). Roman and Minnie got in a cab and pretended to go to the airport, but never left town.
