The 86-year-old Franco-Polish director's film,"An Officer and a Spy," captured the awards for best director and best adapted screenplay, a deeply controversial choice for the French film industry in the #MeToo era.Polanski, who was absent from the ceremony, pleaded guilty to having sex with a 13-year-old girl in the US in 1977 but fled before sentencing. He has been a fugitive from justice ever since.
" However, Polanski winning the gong for best director would"send a negative message."Actress Adèle Haenel leaves the award ceremony after Roman Polanski wins the award for best director.But actress Fanny Ardant, who received the Cesar for best supporting actress for her role in"La Belle Époque," came to the defense of Polanski. She told reporters shortly after winning,"When I love someone, I love them passionately. And I love Roman Polanski a lot ...
Roman Polanski FOREVER French is weak and is not European any more French is Arabica
It's rape. The word your looking for is rape
Raped a 13 year old
Shamful tweet. That is RAPE
'pleading guilty to having sex with a 13-year-old' AKA raping a 13-year-old.
You mean rape
Looks like you guys were having problems so I fixed it for you, no worries
At the same time American actresses give him standing ovations
The Oscars gave him best director for The Pianist in 2003. Hollywood, and each country’s equivalent, is still and has always been a rotten boy’s club. Stop working with these scumbags. Stop nominating them. I don’t care how talented he is; Roman Polanski is a rapist.
That’s called rape
Showbiz industry is a giant cesspool of sex maniacs
art belongs to everyone, not just to the artist. all art is derivative of past art. withhold financial prizes from artists who've done horrible things, whenever possible. but don't pretend the art isn't good, unless it really isn't good. that just adds to the damage.
Donald Trump did the same thing. We made him the president.
And our Hollywood is largely trash. Our acadamy with Meryl Streep's introduction gave him a standing ovation! And Woopie said drugging & sodomizing a 13yr old girl was not 'rape rape.'
You could go ask Jack Nicholson and Angelica Huston about it since they were both there when he gave the child quaaludes and sodomized her in Jack’s hot tub. Why don’t you? Kinda wondering
That is one smart woman.
I don’t get it. Do prizes reward artistic and scientific work or the moral virtue of the recipient? If the discoverer of a breakthrough in chemistry murders someone, does that disqualify him/her automatically for the Nobel prize?
“having sex” raping*
An Ex-pat Liberal pervert........
They were fine when he was getting lifetime achievements award from Hollywood ?
And he's still a part of hollywood today. You people have been his fans for my entire lifetime. Sick fucks.
Hollywood defended this creep for years, but now expects the larger society to believe their outrage for a problem that most of us knew existed for decades.
Hollywood Liberals love child rapist Roman Polanski!!!!
Love how he was still being given standing ovations a couple years ago in Hollywood🤦🏻♂️they are all hypocrites
I wonder if the Witches of the View will discuss this story after a history of Whoopi Goldberg defending Polanski.
F::: France give ALL THE OSCARS TO THEM AS LONG AS WE GET D J T ECONOMY WE BY THOSE OSCAR BACK AT THE PAWNSHOP
I guess they shouldn’t have changed the name of the award to the “Epstein Award”
“Sex with a 13 year old girl” that’s rape, cnn. Not having sex.
So curious that MeToo girls are helping to do away with old production models not based on producing serial trashy prequels, sequels, spinoffs, superhero shit, etc. and charge against left wing personalities mainly. Eager to see a raid in Disney productions.
'pleading guilty to having sex with a 13-year-old' You do mean pleading guilty to raping a 13-year-old. Its called statutory rape so why are you cleaning it up for him?
Proving once again, they are fine with rapist. Just now conservatives.
A grown man “having sex with a 13-year old” is called RAPE. CHILD MOLESTATION!!!
He *raped* a 13 year old.
Sir, I mean we have been just not reporting the other side of the story, but now you're talking about fabricating the news story?...are you sure... New Director: Go There!!!!!
Is it possible to deal with a pedophile? Such can only be despised
Yeah, because one serves Satan, himself if he has sex with a 13 year old, there's no other explanation, nothing else matters, if it's Satan's servant!
People should see more good films and go to less Lynch mob rallies
Geez, he shouldve stuck around, he couldve been potus in today's USA
NO NO NO NO - liberals are not allowed to have an awards ceremony with this crazy virus 🦠 out there while trump gets criticized for planning another rally - shame!!
White men are so creepy; and they get away with everything, which makes them even more scary.
Put him back in jail
Artist and saint have never been the same profession
Roman Polanski is a pedophile
