About this listen

As a child, Roman Polanski escaped from a Krakow ghetto on the day the Nazis took his father to a concentration camp. As a new filmmaker, he became the toast of young Hollywood with his 1968 horror masterpiece, Rosemary’s Baby. But after the brutal murder of his wife, Sharon Tate, at the hands of the Manson family, Polanski unraveled. He wound up committing a heinous crime that led him to escape yet again – this time fleeing the country when an angry judge was ready to throw the book at him. This episode contains themes that may be disturbing to some listeners, including child sexual abuse.
