A new BBC documentary argues - with agreement from both the defense and prosecuting attorneys - that the director's notorious trial for statutory rape was distorted by an ambitious judge. "It really isn't about whether Polanski is likeable or not. It's about whether he was treated fairly under California state law. And clearly he was not." The Daily Telegraph (UK) 10/09/08
