It's true that the Holocaust should be remembered so it is not repeated. However, I cannot in good conscience put one thin dime into the pocket of an unrepentant child rapist (Polanski). I don't care how good the movie is.

You have the right to your opinion but the story is:

The night before the sentencing, the judge was in the locker room of an exclusive club and was stating how he was
going tp put Polanski away for a long time. A
director privy to the conversation called his son who knew Polanksi..and he fled.The girl later dropped the charges. However, am not siding with Polanski but if you enjoy a great independent film over some mass produced "cheeky" film produced only for giggling high school and college students ..you won't be disappointed when seeing The Pianist.

However I felt the same way but this is not just an ordinary film..Polanski was a child during the Nazi occupation of Poland. This is one excellent film. One might forget it is Poland and see it as Iraq.
