MAIN STREET is a contemporary drama about several residents of a small Southern city whose lives are changed by the arrival of a stranger with a controversial plan to save their decaying hometown.

Director Roman Polanski casts himself in the lead of the psychological thriller The Tenant. Trelkovsky (Polanski) rents an apartment in a spooky old residential building, where his neighbors — mostly old recluses — eye him with suspicious contempt. Upon discovering that the apartment's previous tenant, a beautiful young woman, jumped from the window in a suicide attempt, Trelkovsky begins obsessing over the dead woman. Growing increasingly paranoid, Trelkovsky convinces himself that his neighbors plan to kill him. He even comes to the conclusion that Stella (Isabel Adjani), the woman he has fallen in love with, is in on the "plot." Ultimately, Polanski assumes the identity of the suicide victim — and inherits her self-destructive urges. Some critics found the movie tedious and overdone; others compared it to Polanski's early breakthrough, Repulsion. The film was based on Le Locataire Chimerique, a novel by Roland Topor.

Academy Award winners Melvyn Douglas ("Being There," "The Candidate") and Lila Kedrova ("Zorba the Greek," "The Tenant") make screen magic as a long-married couple who go on a cross-country journey when it is discovered that the wife is dying. Together they try to reconnect with their estranged daughter before it is too late. Also starring Peter Coyote ("Femme Fatale," "A Walk to Remember") and Brooke Adams (the "Lace" miniseries, "The Dead Zone").

Polanski plays Trelkovsky, a quiet, timid file clerk whose unremarkable life becomes increasingly overshadowed with dread and fear after he moves into his new home. Adding to his paranoia are the building?s other occupants, who do nothing to alleviate his growing obsession with the untimely, tragic fate of the apartment?s previous tenant.
