Not just that, but his entire childhood...imprisoned in the Krakow ghetto during the Holocaust, he escaped as a preteen and had to fend for himself for several years, his mother gassed at Auschwitz, and father imprisoned in another concentration camp...and then his wife and child murdered...I'm not excusing Polanski, but is it any wonder the guy is f**ked up?
I watched it too,No matter what, he is and always will be a scumbag who ran away from his punishment. No excuse can clean his slate,I don't buy the sympathy bit from him,what he did was take advantage of a child premission granted or not,no child at 13 can make adult decisions there are laws governing children and Polanski "skirted" those laws.
Roman's biggest mistake was not marrying the 13 year old. Of course Elvis married his 13/14 year old sexual liasion and this is perfectly ok.
I am a sick puppy....woof woof!!!

I so agree with this!!! I do not condone what Roman did in any way, but let's face it..the charges need to go away at this point and as was pointed out by neilmpenny, Priscilla was just beyond 13 when Elvis took up with her and Jerry Lee Lewis also married a 13 year old cousin (I think it was a cousin)..anyway my point is that he is not the only celeb to have sex with an underage girl and won't be the last....even the "victim" says she has forgiven him!
Wasnt this acceptable up until very recently? Like I said in the other thread 13 year olds can be whores too we can execute them if they kill but they are innocent victims when they go out and fuck? Whatever. Yeah Roman shouldve shown some constraint.
A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.
I posted this on the Sharon Tate thread but you know how posts
get lost.
This is the Grand Jury testimony.

MoonRabbit, Ich posted a very interesting map on Dead eyes thread. Go have a look. It's very interesting to say the least.
Not my type personally. But I guess he must have something going for him!!!!
watch the documentary. i thought i remembered what went down but when you see it, it certainly gives you somethng to think about. was he guilty of sex with a minor? absolutely. but what happened afterwards was off the wall.
the judge was a fame whore and was only concerned about making a name for himself. He didn't care about justice at all. It was crazy and off the wall.
Yup!!
Sex was crazy back then but isn't it the same today except for
the AIDS virus that calmed it down?
I think Roman was a dog to have had sex with this kid after giving her drugs and booze. And I think
he fled because he knew what he did was going to get him
jailed.
I feel bad because of what Roman went through in his life.
But I'm not sure he was thinking of his life's misery when he
screwed this 13 year old girl.
I think he wanted to knock his rocks off. Maybe Roman was
on drugs and that impaired his judgment?
I just remembered an incident about Elvis and Priscilla!
In the book "Elvis and Me" Priscilla talked about the time
Elvis gave her drugs to sleep and Priscilla didn't wake up
for 2 or 3 days! And I'm pretty sure is was a minor at the
time of this incident.
My mother is a huge fan of Elvis Presley and if I say anything
negative about him she will really get pissed off. Even if it's
true.
I would think with what we know now both Elvis and Roman were probably freely using drugs and I am sure that factored into the situation with Roman and the girl and I do not think that girl was innocent in it all either...she could have called someone or left or smacked him over the head when he started getting out of hand...JMO
ELVIS met PRISCILLA while he was stationed in Germany when she was all of 14; he moved her into GRACELAND, the mecca for white trash when she was 16. He supposedly promised her parents that she'd have her own room, a private tutor, and how everything would be on the up & up. When several years later it appeared that he was more interested in ANN MARGRET whom he'd met while working on VIVA LAS VEGAS, PRISCILLA' stepfather lowered the boom saying that if ELVIS didn't marry his stepdaughter he would make a big noise about how how he'd had her installed in GRACELAND while she was a minor. Of course truth be told wouldn't the parents have been accomplices to the set-up ?

This guy is a real selfish asshole, he has stated in the media recently that if the criminal charges are dropped against him he still will not return to United States he just wants to have a clean record. I can't believe he would not go to see his wife and son's grave after 30 years, you would think that would be the first place he would want to go after all these years.

PEOPLE magazine interviewed some of his co-stars, and others who had known him for a retrospective that they were doing to honor his '50th Birthday' or some other date. Anyway, most of the actresses offered the same dribble about ELVIS saying "how terribly sweet and naive" he was etcetera.
BARBARA EDEN, SHELLEY FABARES, MARY ANN MOBLEY, all provided the same pat anecdotes.
They should've interviewed DONNA DOUGLAS who has never spoken publicly about the dirty shit he pulled on her. STELLA STEVENS told PEOPLE about what an absurd ass he had been when they were making GIRLS GIRLS GIRLS in 1962. The awkward moves he made on her; just basically that he was an inept sleazeball. Several weeks later in the 'Feedback' section from the magazine's readers there was quite a few blasting STEVENS for daring to insinuate that ELVIS was anything short of extraordinary. How dare she ? Fans often want to see & think what they want, nothing more. I think that NATALIE WOOD likely summed him up fairly well following a several week romance: "He could sing, but that's about it !"

He is a great artist. That girl he "raped" is a manipulative little cunt and so is her mother.
Polanski is a genious...many of his films will stand for a ong time, as some of the greatest ever.... As to his personal life.. well I cannot help feeling sympathy towards him... he lost his family in the Holocaust, his wife and unborn baby in brutally butchered along with three family friends.. and he has still managed to keep his sanity. Not that this excuses him for sleeping with a thirteen year old girl.. that is gross. But I agree with keunjames I believe that the girl and her mother are mainly to blame... granted polanski was an adult and should have refused, but he was told that she was older, she looked older etc... I dunno. I think the charges should be dropped, so he can visit his wife and son´t grave....!!!

Love is the answer - and you know that for sure.
Ok, just speaking from memory here, but I thought he confessed to knowing she was only 13... Anyone? Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
I agree the mother was total pond scum. What kind of parent wouldn't want to supervise their young daughter's "Vogue photo shoot" with a 40ish man? But I do have a bit of a problem blaming a 13 year old girl, no matter how "sexually experienced" she allegedly was.
If my rotten memory serves me well I remember that Priscilla's parents
mentioned that they didn't want to ruin Priscilla's chances of opportunity?
I guess this was why they allowed her to visit and live with Elvis when she was underaged?
Imagine allowing your under aged daughter to live with a sex symbol?
What bugged Elvis is that Priscilla left him for a guy that made a low
standard of living. At least that is what his friends wrote?
I guess Priscilla Presley will never want of anything will she?
I'm a fan of Polanski's Work before the rape. I'm not a fan of his personally. He was a jerk to Sharon he didn't want that baby; he wanted her to get rid of it. He raped that girl pure and simple and he's no better then the pedophiles in prison. He's a coward for running away. What even makes me more Irrate is the actors that completely put aside what he did and travel to France to work with him! Yet we crucify Michael Jackson and he's never been convicted of anything! (I'm not defending Wacko Jacko I think he's a slimball also) but the point is why are they turning a blind eye to Polanski but shun Jackson and Gary Glitter etc... They are all equally slimballs and should all be treated the same. If I were an actor and Polanski wanted me to be in his movie I would decline I couldn't live with myself being a mother and knowing what he was convicted of in this country. He's a coward. He needs to face the music.
Has he ever been to Sharon's grave??
Did he attend the funeral, if so, did he go to the grave after that before he fled to France?
They girl that was involved in this w3ant the charges against him dropped and I read that she may not testify if they continue with this . Wonder how this will work for the DA?
Priscilla's parents were culpable for sure.
If you want to read a good book about Priscilla and the real story of how she met Elvis and what she did to meet him, read Suzanne Finstad's Child Bride.

I read it when it came out and was floored and tend to believe a lot of it. Priscilla was a little groupie who did what she could to get where she got.
he didn't care about Sharon and he didn't give a damn about that baby. Keenujames I was highly offended at your C word Comment every woman here should have been offended.
HE was the adult in the room. HE should have used self control, HE has had relationships with other minors HE is a Pedophile.
OK he's an excellent Director Loved Rosemary's Baby... so I'll give credit where credit is due...
HE'S a Talented Pedophile. Oh yeah he's also a coward for not facing what he did and served his time.

I would bet before he was involved in the rape case he didn't visit her... I bet he could count on his one hand the times he visited her grave. He didn't care about her or the baby.
What kills me to this day is that Sharon's sister keeps in touch with him... I mean she had to know how he treated her, cheated on her, wanted her to have an abortion. I wouldn't give him the time of day especially after he like a coward fled to France.
No I don't
Since he never faced the music, was a coward and fled the statue of limitations should never be up. He never served a day for his sentence. He escaped. If he came to the US now they would throw away the key... that's what needs to happen... he's no different then any other pedophile.
