He should be in jail.

...and I doubt any of us ever will.I find him problematical at best. What punishment he deserves I can't say, but Polanski's a slimeball at the very least. And not that it excuses his conduct in any way, but any mother that allowed her 13 year old daughter to participate in such a situation is also culpable.
However, Polanski *is* a brilliant filmmaker. Ghost Writer is quite well done and it's nice to see an intelligent thriller for adults in the local cinplex (although I figured out the twist long before it was revealed). I did have a problem with the ending, but GW is a beautifully executed movie.

He gave alcohol and quaaludes to a 13yr old girl, then raped her. Instead of accepting the consequences of his actions, he fled the US and has been a fugitive since 1978.
He should be in jail.
Or do you condone drugging and raping 13 yr old girls ?
Best,
Ross

I don't condone anything and if she were my daughter I'd kill the bastard on the spot, but after more than a 30 years when "victim" and a "vilain" have aged, forgotten, have families and mostly paid for the crime what sense is besides more finacial expectation from a family and fame for some obscure US prosecutor in putting Polanski in Jail? AFAIK he IS in Jail now.
I've never followed the full story but being responsible parent I'd never send my daughter to be a model or a participant in Hollywood's parties of that era-would you?

Typical "scapegoat" high profile case. Utter nonsese.
