- Carnage (2011) “Carnage,” a black comedy based on Yasmina Reza’s play “God of Carnage,” presents a meeting of two middle-aged couples (John C. Reilly and Jodie Foster, Christoph Waltz and Kate Winslet), who gather in order to discuss the situation where one of their children hit another couple’s child with a hockey stick in the face.
- The Ninth Gate (1999) On paper, “The Ninth Gate” should be the next Polański masterpiece. The popular novel by Arturo Pérez-Reverte, “The Club Dumas,” where a “book detective” searches for a novel written by Lucifer himself, should be a perfect ground for a movie adaptation, one that would be a combination of the noir sensitivity of “Chinatown” and a Satanic horror movie like “Rosemary’s Baby.”
- Oliver Twist (2005) At first glance, Polański isn’t a typical choice to direct Charles Dickens’ literary classic “Oliver Twist.” But considering the director’s biography, particularly his rough childhood during World War II, there is a visible parallel between the cases of the young Oliver Twist fighting for his honor on the streets of London during the Industrial Revolution, and young Polański, who was caught up with his family in the ghettos, then hiding from the Nazis in a Polish province.
- The Fearless Vampire Killers (1967) “The Fearless Vampire Killers” is the first movie by Polański shot in color. The story happens in the 19th century and is about an eccentric professor named Abronsius (Jack MacGowran) and his awkward assistant Alfred (played by Polański himself), who arrives in a small Transylvanian town in order to find the evidence for existence of the legendary bloodsuckers called vampires.
