Polanski. Boy am I cross

Harvey Weinstein: "Roman Polanski is a man who cares deeply about his art and its place in this world. What happened to him on his incredible path is filled with tragedy, and most men would have collapsed. Instead, he became a great artist and continues to make great films. I was with him the day he won the Legion of Honour in France, which was a spectacular day. I remember the incredible love and affection that people have for him." From here .

Bollocks. Bollocks. Bollocks. Irrelevant bumlicking bollocks.

Roman Polanski is by his own admission a rapist who abused the trust of a 13-year-old girl. The judge in the case had no cause to be making an agreement with him whereby he got off with 40-odd days and latterly realised the fact, at which point Polanksi skipped.

I don't care how many good films he's made, he's a rapist and should be in jail.

There is a point where even I become an authoritarian and some things are just wrong. That Polanski's been swanning about Europe for the past thirty years before being arrested is one of them.
