The Tenant (1976)

Edit this Page
Roman Polanski Director previously directed Chinatown

In Paris, a shy and modest Trelkovsky moves into an apartment that has been left vacant by a woman who mysteriously committed suicide. Soon Trelkovsky begins to suspect that the neighbors are conspiring against him and he turns more and more paranoid.

Quote: Trelkovsky

These days, relationships with neighbors can be... quite complicated. You know, little things that get blown up out of all proportion? You know what I mean?
