Several actresses have walked out of the César awards ceremony in Paris after Roman Polanski, who was convicted of the statutory rape of a 13 year old in 1977, won best director.
The awards - France's equivalent of the Oscars - have been mired in controversy after Polanksi's An Officer and a Spy received 12 nominations.He has since faced other accusations of sexual assault.
Good !!!!! He’s a sick convicted child rapist on the run. She was 13 when he raped and buggered her. Not a word from “Me Too” that I’ve read
He’s a coward at best and should get an award for that definitely. These women were right to walk out. Shameful!
Just a thought.,, if Polanski was a scientist who found a cure for cancer would these actresses and others decline the cure
'outside the venue' NOT 'outside of the venue'!
no surprise there then.
And the thousands of girls raped in this country by Pakistani grooming gangs. Now a bloody word from the BBC

Because he has loved a babe from a vampire movie. Simple and to the point today and beyond.
I thought the woke culture would have applauded the diversity brought by an acknowledged child abuser. Or maybe the abusers in the audience felt it was uncomfortably close to them so chose to flee ?
This story illustrates where in the pecking order women and girls are placed in society.
I'm disgusted that he was even nominated. And I'm baffled how he thinks it's slander. He is a pedophile and child rapist, that's FACT. He even confessed to having sex with a little girl. And I'm annoyed that France and Poland refuse to turn him over so he can go to jail
If Kobe Bryant can be treated as a hero despite an out-of-court settlement for a violent rape charge, then Roman P should be celebrated for his art! SkyNews
Polanksi s h o u l d TRY his HAND at DIRECTING a DOCUMENTARY entitled: ' L o s ANGELES J u d g e s who've had SEXUAL R e l a t i o n s with 1 3 Y E A R o l d G I R L S s i n c e March 1 9 7 7 '
When you say ‘walkouts’ I presumed incorrectly there was many. One woman walked out (presumably the only reason she was there?) and everyone sat and watched her walk

Polanski was convicted and has evaded justice. Shame on those who would employ him and those who honour him in full knowledge of what he has done. Total disgrace.
BBC has misspelled his surname. It's Polanski.
Seriously, how can we be honouring a paedophile Regardless of his contribution to the art, the man has condemned himself by his own actions.
Hollywood and Bafta gave him Oscar awards for Tess and Pianist after that - shame on them. Actually cesars2020 gave him awards to after his peadophile convictions. So fuck you too. RomanPolanski MeToo
Not sure if you've reported this?
Récompensé pour son talent
Ummm I think that is a typo. Dictator maybe? Is correct. Momma said..
Shameful
Why is an actual nonce still allowed to make films?
Because he is the best
Dihaggis The fact that this scum was honored at all is disgusting. Not surprised he was afraid to attend.
The Universe doesn't like it when something takes 43 yrs to correct... It's mad...
