This foreign born A list director is really getting desperate to see this group of cancer doctors. He keeps trying to make deal after deal to let him into the country. He will die within the next year, if not sooner if he doesn't get the help.
Polanski is in his eighties. Many people better than him have died horrible deaths at young ages. It's amazing how afraid of death these people are. Maybe Afraid of what awaits them in the afterlife.
It wasn't about 48 days, it was about election time and the DA or judge reneging on a sentencing agreement, in an attempt to give him up to 50 years in prison.
Samantha Reimer is over it, that's the opinion that counts.
So raping a child is ok, providing the victim -- who was drugged unconscious by the pedophile so likely cannot recall nor comprehend what happened, is "over it."
And it was all just a big anti-Semitic political show anyway, because raping every orifice on Samantha Geimer's unconscious body was not an actual crime.
Oh, and she asked him to.
Right?
Hope you are childless for sure, and maybe typing while drunk or something...
Look, I've been a victim too. But the fact is, sometimes people do get over it. No one is defined for life by something that happened to them when they were younger unless they let it. So yes, since it happened to her, she should have the final say.
Oh he's ready to come to face justice in court but only if the court tells him before he comes that he won't go to jail. Maybe some of his apologists will stand ready to serve his time if he gets some. Not likely.
The only person worse than Polanski is Samantha's mother. What kind of mother just drops off a 13 year old alone at Jack Nicholson's house? She should have been chaperoned!
No. A victim should not be able to say "Well, he raped me, but probably won't do it again, so let him go. I'm over it now". Law does not work like that, nor should it.
I think it's not literally the "doctors" he seeking, it's the medical equipment/medication (something that's legal in the US might not have been approved in Europe). I'd rather help these cancer patients anyways: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmBYGiaheTM
Can't believe this man had the gall to make "Repulsion" about the after-effects of sexual abuse! But then again, I've seen a molester who directed "Woman at Point Zero", so I guess we shouldn't be surprised.
Sounds like Roman Good riddance. I hate the fact so many in HW want to see this pig back. He's got some chutzpah saying he will come back if they declare time served.
Exactly my thought. I doubt it's Polanski. I remember Farrah Fawcett traveled to Germany to receive experimental treatment unavailable in the states at the time.
To be clear here, then 44 year old Polanski drugged and raped a 13 year old girl, pled guilty to doing so, served 42 days in prison, then skipped the country. This is not in dispute. Its a matter of the public record and he's had 40 years from then until now to rectify this.
So I'm having a hard time feeling sympathy for the guy. Let him find his cancer therapy elsewhere, in one of the other 100+ countries where he isn't a wanted felon.
Jennifer, that isn't what happened. The victims mother, an actress herself, let Polanksi (who was a famous director, even then) shoot her daughter for a photoshoot ostensibly for Vogue magazine .
Yes, the Mom should have been there, but there is no way she could have thought someone of Polanski's stature was a pedophilic rapist. Now you're equating that lapse in judgement to actual rape?
Even if Samantha Geiler has forgiven Polanski for drugging and anally raping her when she was 13, she doesn't have the ABILITY to forgive him for fleeing the country and violating the terms of his parole.
That's not a crime he committed against her, but against the State of CA. Only the State of CA can grant that "forgiveness".
On the merits, though, I also disagree with this premise. That she was gracious enough to forgive him and move on doesn't excuse a **VERY** serious sexual assault against a minor.
Polanski

ReplyDeleteKarma may be late but she always comes for ya.
ReplyDeleteFu** that guy. I hope the cancer eats away at his stomach and intestines. I hope he dies in absolute horrible pain.

ReplyDeleteCancer treatment in France and Switzerland is excellent so I can't imagine the US can offer anything they can't.
ReplyDeleteMaybe the Iranian director of The Salesman?
Why doesn't he just fly the US doctors to see him in France? He can surely afford it.
ReplyDeleteMo is reading my mind! Roman's PR people are already in gear with the sympathy vote. He is probably in great health.
ReplyDeleteIf Polanski, I bet he now wishes he had just served those 48 days in 1977.
ReplyDeleteFool.

Sorry, *Samantha Geimer
ReplyDeleteIf it is Polanski then good riddance. Karma is a bitch.

ReplyDeleteIs he suffering? Aww.
ReplyDeleteThank you MPF!!!
ReplyDeletePolanski doesn't have the clout to fly Mayo Clinic doctors all over the world. The doctors have plenty of patients to deal with on American soil.
Polanksi?
