      In Tarantino´s universe,Sharon tate didn´t die so Roman never went crazy. He stayed at USA and lived happily ever after. He made a bunch of films and was never limited by european studios. He probably directed "Sliver".

      I find this quite ironic as Polanski is criticizing the media for portraying the murder in certain ways and the Tarantino uses Tates murder as material for his movie. Seems pretty similar to what Polanski was criticizing, and also pretty disrespectful to the actual victims

      Right, a baby two weeks from being born isn’t human...My nephew was born 3 1/2 months too early, 1 lb 12 oz. He felt pain and stimulation, his little heart and brain were working away- he needed a lot of medical help to get him to where he would have been nearer his actual due date. But he got to come home perfectly healthy a month early, so at what would have been 8 months gestation. A perfectly functioning infant, and Sharon Tate’s baby was 2 weeks older than him... So just shut your ignorant face, don’t talk about stuff unless it’s what you watched on the Cartoon Network last night. Anything else is likely too deep for you

One of the exhibits was a small handwritten note by Roman Polanski when he and his family were effectively imprisoned in the ghetto. He’s a complex man who has seen his fair share of tragedy, and who has visited tragedy on others.

      Barney Os. Probably because Kubrick was intelligent and perceptive enough to know trauma shouldn’t be buried under more stress (I.e. working on a big movie project) and that Polanski would find that spark to go back to his job once he had time to process what had happened in his personal life. Although Kubrick was infamously a workaholic, he was always comfortable at home with his family and pets when not shooting, and he edited his films in a big shed on their property.

      Mike Douglas deserves recognition as well as he took what had been an entertainment based talk show and then took on all the edgy subjects and brought in the controversial people of the era. Seeing those episodes with Martin Luthe King and Muhammad Ali arguing with other guests was terrific and I don't think it was exploitive like Geraldo and Jerry Springer were. I don't know what to think of Donahue as I almost never watched it because of his liberal bias interfering with his ability to deliver a fact based show.

      Not just what happened in 1969. Roman Polanski is a Holocaust survivor. His mother was killed at Auschwitz - while she was pregnant. His sister was also taken to Auschwitz. His father was taken away to a labor camp, in front of him. His father saved him by arranging for a friend to hide him, and told his Roman to run away and find that friend when the Nazis were rounding them up. He talked about how paranoid he was that something bad would happen to Sharon while she was pregnant, because of what happened to his mother. And then this….. I don’t know how someone ever recovers from all that.

This is a pretty raw interview, and quite revealing about his state not so distant from the horrible crime. I think he's still in shock. I think there's a small language breakdown, but he does get his point across. He has very evident convictions about how he feels, and conducts himself. He's not the most polished tool in the shed-and he's committed a crime himself.

With all the glorification of the past they always dredge up, what I remember about living in the 70s was a wild, lawless freedom. The rebelliousness of the 60s was now accepted and commonplace. Anything could and did go. But the fiery buzz of the 60s was worn off. The 70s was a lot off wildness and fun. But Also a kind of general bored hangover feeling. In the 50s there was Elvis, the 60s the Beatles. So something huge has to happen soon. Right? But it never did and we were all left waiting. But, yeah, I had a ball. Just my 2 cents. Peace.

      While I agree that it was insensitive to ask, I commend Dick for trying to get to the truth. Recent books like "CHAOS" undermine the phony, contrived "motives" that Bugliosi made up in "Helter Skelter". The whole theory stinks and has been completely discredited and Bugliosi was investigated, but not prosecuted for tampering with evidence and witnesses.
      When Watson was arrested in Texas, there were tapes made of the interview BEFORE the race war/ Manson brainwashing motive was created. Watson is suing to keep them secret. We want the truth. Always have.
      Polanski treated Sharon like crap, everyone agrees. On the last day he saw her, just before the murders, he put her on a ship, then went off to party and "have a ball". Not long after the deaths he was back to the orgies and parties. He despised the baby--wanted no part of family life and may have suspected that Sharon was impregnated by Jay Sebring. This guy is no angel. Dick was sly and wanted to pry anything resembling logic from him.

    "Within a week of the murders, Polanski was “partying it up” with Warren Beatty, he added. The brutal reality was that “nobody cared or gave a shit about Sharon Tate. Not because they weren’t nice but because she was expendable. As expendable as an actor whose option comes up and gets dropped.”
    Quote from Bill Tennant, Polanski's business partner at the time, who identified the bodies, suffered terribly for it, and knew a lot. He was talking about Polanski, and about the other so-called celebrities at that time who all acquired amnesia.
    From Tom O'Neil's Book, Manson and the CIA... 2019
    Sorry, I can no longer take Roman Polanski at face value.
    And he didn't know that celebrities knew things about the case not reported at trial or in the press? (Cavett's question.) Give me a break. They knew. Those still alive still do. He knew. He wanted to stay in Hollywood. He got what he wanted, for a while anyway.
