Emma Thompson remains mute on Polanski
The actress Emma Thompson has made no public statement regarding her alleged withdrawal of her support for Roman Polanski.
Yes, a student has reported that Emma has told her that she would take her name off a petition supporting Polanski, but she has told no one else and she has released no statement indicating said withdrawal.
The Shakesville blog which had first reported on the student comment has had nothing to say on this since November 4.
Personally, the dankprofessor does not care what Thompson’s position is on Polanski. I am not into the celebrity cult. But hardcore left feminists apparently are into said cult. They care about what Thompson says or not says on Polanski and they care about Polanski because he is a male and a celebrity.
I know the retort would be that they care about Polanski because they believe he is a rapist in the most ideal form. Now if they really cared about bringing rapists to justice they would be picketing the city hall in Los Angeles and other major cities because DA’s do little or nothing about rape. They leave the rape kits in storage unexamined.
And there is little or no emphasis on rapists at large. Of course, the LA Times says that Roman Polanski is still a danger. They must know something that we don’t know. Or maybe they have seen too many Polanski movies. Maybe they and others really believe that it was Polanski who slammed the kid in the face in THE TENANT.
Here is what the dankprofessor knows. The LA DA, the talking and writing heads all want to be on the Larry King Show which means they are “real” celebrities. As Celebrity Paris Hilton said on the Larry King Show, “you (Larry ) are a legend”.
Now there are two people I know of who definitely don’t want to be on that show- Roman Polanski and Sarah Geimer. They just want to be left alone. Ironic isn’t it!
Enough said, at least for now.
