I watched the documentary Roman Polanski: Wanted and Desired and it was pretty good.
I was wondering how is it that Roman Polanski still remained a successful filmmaker, after the huge crime scandal. He even won an Oscar after the scandal. I mean when it comes to other celebrities, like producer Harvey Weinstein for example, you won't see him being given a the lifetime achievement Oscar 20 years from now.
Or even OJ Simpson was never able to get back into the movie business after his crime scandal, nor Robert Blake. Now I am defending any of these people at all, but I was just wondering, how is it that Polanksi was about to be successful afterwards compared to other celebrities, out of curiosity?
