Birds of a Feather: Woody Allen defends Roman Polanski

Oh isn’t this lovely.  The man who was having sex with his girlfriend’s daughter is defending a child rapist.  It’s a total greeting card moment.

Director, Woody Allen, has spoken out in defense of Roman Polanski saying that he [Roman] has suffered and paid his dues for his crime already, so we should all just let it go. Let’s hear what Woody, I like my girlfriend’s daughter, Allen has to say about Roman, I will drug and rape you savagely, Polanski.  Popcorn please!

“It’s something that happened many years ago … he has suffered, he has not been allowed to go to the United States. He was embarrassed by the whole thing,” Allen said in an interview Saturday with France Info radio at the Cannes Film Festival.

Allen continued: “He has paid his dues, he has had a hard life. The girl involved doesn’t want anything to happen to him.” [via Popeater]

Hard Life? REALLLLY? He’s currently on “house arrest” in a chateau in SWITZERLAND! He’s been able to continue to win praise and accolades from MORONS like YOU in Hollywood.

Um, Woody, Rapist Polanski fled the country so as to escape punishment. That’s why he didn’t come back to America. He would have been ARRESTED for RAPING a 13 year old girl! Oh, but that’s facts getting in the way of your own version of the truth.

Johnny Depp has also come out in support of Polanski, saying he’s “not out on the street”. Yeah, I wonder if that makes Charlotte Lewis feel any better.
