Roman Polanski

So what is everyone's opinion on this? The lecherous old goat molested a 14 year old girl; is 30 years and a boatload of money/critical acclaim enough to make being a pedophile OK?

Seemingly it is if you are french, but then they have always loved their children.

Well he is a fantastic director like:D

I'm not one for believing in tabloids, but it is alleged that he plied her with drugs and alcohol in Jack Nicholson's house. I have also seen the picture of the victim aged 13, and she looks exactly that, 13. Polanski needs to face up to what he did.

He's a brilliant guy, and he made a little mistake 32 years ago. What a shame for Switzerland."

Tell that to the 13 year old girl who he drugged and raped :rolleyes:

Yeah like he cut their unborn baby out of her stomach for gods sake.
What the hell were famous people dong hanging out with Charles Manson anyway!

13 by 3 really

I'd go 13 +3 lol

If she's 13 then she's a minor and not a prepubescent child. Roman Polanski had sex with a minor, he's not a pedophile. I hate people using sensationalistic terms incorrectly.

He pleaded guilty (and skipped out when he found out that he wasn't going to get a lenient sentence)

Isn't the point of statutory rape that she wasn't old enough to provide consent?

Glad to hear that rape isn't your cup of tea.:rolleyes:

Charles Manson didn't kill Sharon Tate, 4 of his followers murdered Tate and the other victims of that incident on Mansons orders. While he is certainly responsible, he didn't murder her himself.

The urban myth about the baby being cut out is completely untrue.

Manson knew celebrities lived in the house but had no connection to Tate, Polanski or any of the other victims. He simply wanted famous people murdered to generate media hysteria.

Having sex with a minor is not the same thing as paedophelia by the way folks, but something tells me that will be about as much use in this thread as pissing against the wind

Either way, raping a kid should never be referred to as a little mistake

Regardless of how good a director he is, or how much he payed her.
