A) Polanski is an overrated director

B) All the art in the universe does not even out an abominable action like the one he did. Even if he saved the world of cinematography with his movies and saved lives, he would still loose any respect for having raped an underage girl. Some crimes must not be forgiven or forgotten.

C) If you support the person, even if you do it out of love for his art, you're condoning his actions. Any praise, forgiveness or "he just made one mistake" means that that you condone drugging and raping underage girls.

In short terms, some bad actions corrupt the art and take away its value to me.

Besides that, Jesse is still a treasure. That short, tense speech pattern just makes me laugh like an idiot every single time.
