Roman Polanski Wanted and Desired: The Trial of the trial
Roman Polanski fled America thirty years ago. His sudden departure is the incredible escape. At one detail: the director of Dance of the Vampires was not behind bars when he saved. It is to avoid a heavy prison sentence he won London and then France where he has since rebuilt his life. What happened?
In 1977 the filmmaker is accused of sexually abusing a minor. Follows an unfair trial conducted by a judge more concerned by his fame and the media that the search for truth. With Roman Polanski: Wanted and Desired, filmmaker Marina Zenovitch focuses not on the matter as such, but its legal consequences.
Led by a master hand, this documentary which was honored at Sundance festival, presented in the official selection at Cannes and the Festival of Deauville is the trial of the trial. It has so many revelations that might change the situation and finally allow to Roman Polanski, now 75 years old, returning to the United States.
In California, in 1977, a scandal hits the headlines and worldly justice: the filmmaker Roman Polanski was charged with rape of a minor, Samantha Geimer. He is 43 years old, she was 13. This is not the first time the director of Fearless Vampire Killers, Knife in the Water, Rent, etc.., Made headlines in the press. En1969, while preparing a shoot in London, his wife, actress Sharon Tate, was murdered in their home in California. But the filmmaker finds the strength to survive this tragedy. It will turn Chinatown in 1974 which brought international success.
Polanski, Rosemary's since Baby (1968), is regularly referred to by some pressure groups who accuse U.S. of Satanism. Suffice to say that in this country and outrageously Puritan moralist, his reputation is sulphurous. Especially in his films he strives to explore the dark side of human soul. In short, the man - who is more charming, seductive, intelligent, talented - is intriguing.
In 1977, therefore, said Le Figaro, "the parents of Samantha Geimer accuse the filmmaker of abusing their daughter 13 years after making him using drugs and alcohol during a photo shoot for a major fashion magazine, taking place in the home of Jack Nicholson. Roman Polanski pleaded guilty to "unlawful sexual intercourse" and was sentenced to an "evaluation" of three months in prison. The director will spend 47 days. In January 1978, during a meeting with his lawyers, the judge suggested he will return behind bars for a further period of 48 days. Roman Polanski takes a plane to Europe and became (and remains) a fugitive in the eyes of American justice. "
What interests Laurence J. Rittenband, in charge of this affair is the least troubled reputation that the celebrity of the accused. He who loves nothing As the stars and advertising licks his lips. This trial, which he transformed into farce media, will be the greatest of his life, but also its end because it will be withdrawn. As Gérard Lefort wrote in Liberation: "The Dude, also very good living (champagne and girlfriends), scene literally making fortunate to have his label as a filmmaker, so much famous for his films for the massacre a few years [...] before his wife does not so much skin that Polanski make the pleasure last trial to increase his own glory media. What ultimately will lose, since it will organize the imprudence une conférence de presse alors que le procès est en cours, et sera à ce titre récusé. »
Dans Roman Polanski : wanted and desired, la victime, Samantha Geimer (qui depuis a tout pardonné au cinéaste), est plus laconique : « Le juge adorait la publicité, peu lui importait ce qui m'arrivait ou ce qui arrivait à Polanski ».
Dans ce documentaire non autorisé, Marina Zenovitch ne se place pas du côté de la défense ou de l'accusation. Peu importe les faits reprochés à Polanski. Peu importe, également, l'œuvre du cinéaste dont la biographie est sommairement sketched. It does not seek to please him more. His portrait is uncompromising, but without severity, either. The film investigates the case and never deviates from its trajectory. It comes out of the least disturbing revelations about the ways of the judge Rittenband. Ways both challenged by the defense lawyers than by the prosecution.
Roman Polanski: Wanted and Desired is a success. It is a breathless film dull moment, full of archive footage of news clips that we see a true to Polanski himself, seductive, intelligent, sly. Some scenes from films shot by the director cleverly punctuate the whole. Fi scenes where we see a Polanski hunted, haunted, restless ...
As for the main protagonists, from journalists to lawyers through the cops and the victim, they are all there and explain each in detail their vision of this trial. Lacks only the judge, who has since died, and Polanski. The survey is conducted so that ends up in thinking that the way this trial takes place is almost more shocking than the facts reproached Polanski. This, moreover, there is much to say because finalement, même si la victime a pardonné, que s'est-il réellement passé ?
On serait presque tenté de reprocher à Marina Zenovitch de ne pas s'appesantir sur l'affaire elle-même. La mère de Samantha Geimer, actrice de seconde zone, connaissait la réputation du cinéaste. Pourquoi donc avoir laissé sa fille, qui même âgée de 13 ans n'avait rien d'une gamine pré-pubère, avec un tel « monstre », un tel « pervers » ?
Recherché en Californie, aimé en France, tel est le dilemme dans lequel évolue le cinéaste trente ans après les facts. Of course this is not so simple. Neither completely true. The Pianist, which was a huge success in the U.S., are received three Oscars in 2003, amid applause.
However, Polanski knows that if he returns to the U.S. justice do not praise him! He recently expressed the wish to return, free. His lawyers have asked the California court to drop the charges.
This film could change the situation because it provides clear proof that the trial unfair or rather the great media spectacle held thirty years ago was marred by gross irregularities.
Welcome, Mister Polanski?
