| Message | Hey there , you are my favorite director / writer and that's what i wanted to write about in the first place but after seeing your attitude on Polanski's issue i thought i would write down some things about it. In my honest opinion the law systems all over the world have many flaws in order to point people lives to certain directions and i won't say a word about the law. However there's a morality issue here especially when dealing with harmless , innocent beings such as children. Of course the age of 13 ain't what it used to be some decades ago and the innocence is partially gone but that doesn't give the right to anyone to abuse a child of that age. An adult has chosen through life experiences how to stand against or for the dr*g culture of our times as well as his/her s*xual orientation but doing something like that to an under-aged is more like pushing him to the edge and towards certain behaviors that will maybe define the rest of his life and maybe give a good excuse to him when he grows up to do similar actions. Therefore even though i don't believe in the justice of today's law systems , i think Mr. Polanski should be punished with the maximum penalty for his actions. I know as an artist myself (not of you caliber yet but time will tell) that sometimes art means using unorthodox methods and experimenting but does that mean an artist can go beyond the frontiers of morality when they have to interact with other human beings and finally get away with it ? |
