Netflix/Amazon/whoever worked out an agreement with the film company to pay them a certain amount for the rights, and Polanski gets a cut of that.<br /><br />I believe, if I saw it, that I could separate the art from the man. I just want a way to see the art without supporting the man. Maybe a used copy?<br />Livianiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10479932701589363306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4455799919149349621.post-38104595146932149192012-11-04T19:08:09.085-08:002012-11-04T19:08:09.085-08:00I was just telling someone about this movie and wa...I was just telling someone about this movie and was wondering if I got the "He has his father's eyes" line right.

It's interesting how we all respond differently. One person's creepy is another person's cheesy.

I need to read the novel at some point.<br />I enjoyed your post and the observations too. I agree, the Oriental dude at the end with the camera was tacky. I think there's a thin line between horror and comedy...if they cross that line, it soon goes from scary to cheesey. But the line about 'his fathers eyes', always gives me the chills.

Usually I separate the writer or director from his work, but in this case, I can't do that.<br /><br />However, I'm O.K. with borrowing the movie from the library or watching it on Instant Streaming, since that doesn't contribute royalties to Polanski.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4455799919149349621.post-92006716216606141332012-11-03T21:45:03.653-07:002012-11-03T21:45:03.653-07:00I've always wanted to see this movie, but now ...I've always wanted to see this movie, but now I've never been able to bring myself to do it since buying it would financially support Roman Polanski.
