Didn’t they just honor Polanski at the Awards a few years ago?
What specifically changed regarding Polanski since then?
Roman Polanski drugged and raped a child... he normally receivea standing ovations from Hollywood ‘elites’ at gatherings of the creepy ones.
Who knows... maybe the world is changing.
Will the Pulitzer board condemn Walter Duranty next?
He won an Oscar in 2003 and received a standing ovation from many in the audience including Meryl Streep. The only think that has changed is this new Times Up/Me Too movement.
So what is that supposed to accomplish? Nothing.
“How many years did it take them to Decide to expel Roman?”
It was probably more like minutes after they realised they’d be called racist if they didn’t nail a white guy also.
Makes me puke. Look how quick they are on lies like the “Duke Lacrosse” case, involving mere “white boys” with no political power. And yet when real rapists (appear to appear) in their own ranks - Charlie Rose now with 27 accusers - decades pass...
“Polanski drugged and raped a 13 year old girl in 1977 and then ran off to Europe to avoid prison in the US.
Then BAM! Just like that, only 41 years later, he gets tossed out of The Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences.
These people are not to be trifled with!”
It’s just like being on death row here in a California Prison. Death row here is a waiting room for nature to take it’s course with octogenarian criminals.
“It’s about time with Roman Polanski.”
Absolutely. I think hell just froze over.
And, Meryl Streep still disgusts me.
Yep, it could hardly be more obvious. Can't only be picking on the black guy, oh, no.
Seriously! Hollyweird lauded him for years! Roman be like, “Huh? Wha?”
And this is suppose to worry them?????
Glad you brought that up, because even though both Cosby and Polanski have in common that they’re sick pervs, Cosby made some of the worst films of the last 40 + years and Polanski some of the most memorable.
Sure. That's gonna happen soon. /sarc
These 'Academies' are harboring perverts. LOL
Inder Verma has resigned as the editor-in-chief of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. This is a big deal in academic circles
