Once upon a time, in a faraway land, there was a great writer/director. He had great films, such as Rosemary's Baby (a personal fave, because devil-babies are hilarious), Chinatown, and more recently, The Pianist (Adrien Barooooooodaaaayyyy).
Oh Roman, you ruled the cinema.
But (allegedly) he drugged and seduced (that's a nice word for what appears to have gone down) at 13 year old in 1977.
Anyhow, Roman apparently finally got busted. In 2009. In Zurich, of all places.
This proves several things:
1. Money can buy you freedom; you can just avoid countries that will punish your crimes
2. The U.S. justice system is critically flawed--it took them THIRTY years to get this guy? HE'S A CELEBRITY. I can radar-track Paris Hilton, and you can't follow an old man around? COME ON.
3. In the 70s, anything went. Really. Especially in Jack Nicholson's den...
4. Poor guy is a Holocaust survivor... He's entitled to some weird behavior.
