    so the petition was originally made by a french copywrite org (evil), which apparently spread it to multiple french film unions and affiliate groups which is probably how it got so many signatures.

    don't get me wrong, many in film (especially french) are pedo-supporting (see also the age of consent petition for cancelling french favs), but it seems like the case---and this is how Natalie Portman characterized it in her apology---that the scumbags promulgated the petition through trusted channels and purposefully obfuscated what Polanski was to be extradited for. "a case of morals" they call it

    though American filmmakers who were literally in LA in the 70s don't get to plead any ignorance on the matter. looking at you David Lynch & Martin Scorsese

        i don't know what you're implying by this, she's simply an example of someone who signed the petition and recanted it with a statement.

          They might be implying she was being manipulated in many ways when she was younger.
