Polanski is in the news again for his new movie "The Ghost Writer." This is a political movie that Polanski has been working on for quite sometime and is just about done. Unfortunately there was a controversy because there was talk about another director coming in to finish the movie. The reason for another director would be because Polanski was arrested in Switzerland and had to stay in jail. He had outstanding warrants dating back to 1978 when he pleaded guilty to sleeping with a 13 year old. Fortunately, Polanski continued to work on the movie from his jail cell. The editor would give the information to Polanski's lawyer, who would pass it to the guard, and eventually into his hands.
This is a really dedicated director and I don't think the movie would have the same effect if it wasn't finished by Polanski. He's a perfectionist and has a very specific image. I can't wait for this movie to come out because I really want to see it.
