The French government is withdrawing its support.

Mimi - it is a very hot and sensitive subject. How it will be resolved is another story. How do you feel and what do you think will happen?

After reading so much about this crime that happened in 1976, and now brought forth
again. I was seeing that the writers, film stars and directors here and in France
want Polanski freed,(exception, Director Bresson) but the average person of both countries want him to pay for his crime no matter that he is a great director.
