Famed director Roman Polanski, known for his works such as Rosemary's Baby and Chinatown, was embroiled in a scandal involving the alleged drugging and rape of teenager Samantha Geimer, shedding light on the dark side of Hollywood.
Although denying the rape accusations, Polanski admitted to engaging in unlawful s**ual intercourse.
However, just hours before his scheduled sentencing, he fled to France out of fear of facing imprisonment or deportation.
In a segment from her autobiography featured in the Sunday Times Magazine, Anjelica Huston reveals a disturbing incident from 1977 when she unexpectedly found Polanski in the company of a young girl at her home.
Upon noticing the director's belongings in the kitchen, Huston called out for him and was soon introduced to the girl, with Polanski explaining that they had been taking photographs together.
At the time, 63-year-old Huston was romantically involved with Jack Nicholson and initially thought little of the encounter until plainclothes detectives stormed her residence the following day.
Recounting the events, Huston described how the authorities discovered marijuana in her possession, followed by uncovering cocaine in her bag.
Consequently, both she and Polanski were swiftly apprehended and escorted into separate police vehicles, marking their arrests.
The aftermath of the incident led to a flurry of media coverage, with numerous newspaper articles and photos circulating detailing the situation.
Polanski faced serious charges related to the alleged s**ual assault of a 13-year-old girl that reportedly occurred at Nicholson's residence.
Despite the legal turmoil, Polanski, an Academy Award winner, has continued his filmmaking career and collaborations with prominent figures in Hollywood.
Nevertheless, he has refrained from returning to the United
