Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe character Eugene Gatowski is a fictional character, based on several producers, who worked with Roman Polanski including William Castle and Gene Gutowski. While in real life Rosemary's Baby was produced by William Castle and Dance of the Vampires was produced by Gene Gutowski, in this movie Eugene Gatowski produced both movies.
- GoofsIn one scene a Nazi officer tells Polanski's mother isn't a Jew because in her maternal lineage her mother and grandmother were not Jewish. The maternal lineage is used in Jewish law. The Nazi laws on how to classify someone a Jewish were different from the Jewish law.
- Quotes
Roman Polanski: I love Sharon. I love her from the bottom of my heart but I was never good in being together with a woman. I want to be free.
- Crazy creditsDuring the closing credits after the music ends there is the sound of filming a scene which includes Polanski saying that the actress was good and then saying "Cut". After that the credits run without any sound.

Featured review
This is a very good movie showing the confliction in the life of Polanski, a great artist, but with great personal issues.
I loved the use of mosaic to show the parallels in his life as a child to the decisions he makes as an adult.
Can a man outrun his experiences?
Can a man outrun the law?
Can a man outrun his desires?
Can a man out run his decisions?
I praise Chapa's courage to make the controversial film, while others will hate him and find flaws in every detail of the film to chastise him for presenting this portrait of confliction in a man.
Really worth the time and really worth the discussions the film will initiate.
