*[[Roman Polanski]] has had a very hard life. While this doesn't excuse his actions in any way, it's hard to feel a bit sorry for the many terrible things he faced:
**He was expelled from primary school simply for being Jewish during World War II, and given the Invasion of Poland, he and his family were forced to live in a ghetto. He also became accustomed to seeing the Nazis assaulting Jewish civilians on the street, and even killing them! When meeting with some Nazis, they cruelly used him for target practicing.
**His parents were taken away to Nazi concentration camps, with his mother dying shortly after arriving at Auschwitz. Though he eventually met again with his father, he was horrified when the Nazis took his father away and his father told him to get lost upon trying to approach him so the Nazis would not take him as well.
**He was assaulted by Janusz Dziuba, a notorious Kraków felon who arranged to sell his bicycle but instead stole his money and beat him badly to the point of fracturing his skull.
**The murder of his beloved wife Sharon Tate and his unborn child Paul Richard. While he was working in London, Sharon and some of her friends were sadistically murdered by Charles Manson's followers. This was a turning point in his life, having said that his absence that night is the biggest regret of his life.
*[[Roman Polanski]] has expressed regret for what he did to Samantha Geimer, not wanting to talk about it anymore for the sake of his wife Emmanuelle Seigner and his children Morgane and Elvis, showing that he does care about his family. Geimer has also said that she accepts Pulanski's apologies and is sure he would not repeat the same mistake if he were accepted back into the United States of America.
