Filmmaker Roman Polanski’s teenage sex victim is set to stir up controversy by using a photo the director allegedly took of her to illustrate her upcoming memoirs.
Samantha Geimer’s The Girl features a cover portrait of the 13 year old taken less than three weeks before her sex encounter with Polanski at a Hollywood party in 1977.
Sources tell The Hollywood Reporter the shot was taken by Polanski himself during a photoshoot with Geimer at her Woodland Hills, California home, and it featured in a batch of material her lawyer demanded the filmmaker hand over to his client during a civil trial a decade after the director fled to Europe in 1978 in a bid to avoid sentencing.
Geimer was back in the headlines in 2009 when Polanski was detained by Swiss police at Zurich Airport in relation to his outstanding U.S. arrest warrant. Swiss authorities threatened to extradite the director and placed him under house arrest. In July, 2010, the Swiss court rejected the U.S. request and released Polanski from custody.
Throughout his arrest and detention drama, Geimer insisted she had forgiven the filmmaker for what he did to her.

The difference is that Jerry Sandusky was not a Holocaust survivor who had the nerve to have his family slaughtered in the Land of the Free by our own peace loving hippies!
DAMN! I almost mouthed off to you for saying that about a 13 year old up who was against that pig.
However, you meant it about "Whoopi" Goldberg!
Right!
(relaxes)
I was thinking “What picture is he looking at?”
And I know a sentence is something you should never end a preposition with.
I don't know Sandusky’s background as a child. Do your?
Not that it matters.
That would have been most unfortunate.
Give us more of the gory details which we’ve never heard of and you and other obsessives seem to derive so much pleasure of recalling!
If you have such a delicate constitution maybe you should avoid threads about child rapists.
I’ll skip clicking on your link. Thanks anyway.
kind of looks like chloe moretz
i would guess not. not too many 13 year olds want to have sex with guys 20+ years older than them. if they are sexually active the guy is a lot closer to their age.
Wow. Was that right after she won gold at the Olympics?
You’re quite right that Polanski had an horrific childhood and adult life and she was a sexually active 13 year old supposedly
And he was 40 something
Its still quite wrong.....I think some laws regarding 18 year old boy with 15-17 year old girls are draconian
But 13....that is pure pederasty or even pedophilia if she is pre mense
And lest we forget it all happened under Jack Nicholson roof
Polanski is obviously disturbed
Geimer says she forgives him....fwiw
That’s provocative?
In 2009:
Would have been a reasonably sound investment.
Are you thinking of Natasha Hastings?
