Let's be crystal clear on this:

Roman Polanski is a very talented director who has made many movies that I enjoy and find emotionally moving ("The Pianist" being on the list). That being said, Roman Polanski is also a fucking rapist. And by that I mean he was foudn guilty of raping a 13-year-old girl.

He has apparently crawled out of his hole and made some statement. Which I refuse to read. Because the facts of the matter are the facts. Polanski was arrested and charged with rape. He was found guilty by a jury of rape. He then proceeded to run away and hide from his conviction, and the intervening years have muddled the story.

Here's the story: Roman Polanksi drugged and sodomized a 13-year-old girl. He was found guilty of these facts. If you think he should be left alone because it was "so long ago," or you think the victim wasn't a victim because "she knew what she was doing," then you're a bad person.

I don't care how talented Roman Polanski is, he's still a fucking rapist.
