Charlotte Lewis might not be the image of perfection to some, but no matter how much mental gymnastics you want to employ, one thing is certain: Roman Polanski raped her. You shouldn’t have to be perfect to ‘qualify’ as a rape victim. People have to stop searching for the "ideal victim". A victim is a victim, and a rapist is a rapist, PERIOD. Please make sure to take the time and watch the whole film as it contains many revelations that you might want to be aware of.
This testimony is the full, uncut version of Charlotte Lewis' previous account about Roman Polanski on our channel. The only things removed were moments of silence.

Charlotte Lewis here , I want to thank everybody for their kind words . I’m not used to that . My Goddaughter told me about the comments and read some to me . I was really touched . Thank you
Bless you, you stunning lady. I didn't come forward, rightly or wrongly I don't know. But I'm so so glad you have. I'm really grateful for you and your strength and beauty. So sorry for all your suffering. You never deserved it. Thank you!
Dear Charlotte. Your are powerful and strong and deserve justice. We support you and love you. Always have. Lots of hugs, Matan & the Real Women/Real Stories' team.
My heart goes out to you. You were victimized by Roman Polanski and then victimized by people in society at large. How horrific. You are an amazing strong woman to tell your story and give your perspective.
❤️❤️❤️
I'm totally ashamed that Polanski shares same nationality with me! God bless you Charlotte 🙏 ❤ you are strong, beautiful woman ❤
This is why so many women don't report rape.
but just because they dont want to, doesn't mean they shouldn't. on the other hand, there are also so many cases of men being falsely accused and their whole life being destroyed for it even without evidence
Exactly. I was raped by one of my husband's professors in the early eighties, and campus police accused me of lying because the guy had Parkinson's, although another graduate student's wife said the prof. grabbed her arm and left bruise marks. The prof. vehemently denied the rape. He admitted he raped me 3 years later, but by then we had moved out of the area and just wanted to leave everything behind.
mrs mucha omg ew what a piece of shit he is
@@ARNASI97 so many cases of men being falsely accused and their whole life being destroyed because of this???! Are there really????? I am a mental health worker in several hospital emergency departments. Every shift I work I speak with people (men and women) who's lives have been ruined by someone raping them - usually during their childhood. I have spoken to literally thousands of people who live their lives haunted by flashbacks of this trauma and who battle suicidal thoughts on a daily basis. NOT EVEN ONCE have I met a person who feels their life is ruined by a false accusation of rape.
Yes exspecially young ones.chiksren too there threarened
I get furious when I hear people say “why didn’t they come forward sooner?” Person after person gets abused again, being called names and not believed.
Yes I agree 😼 people don't come forward because no one believes them! ☮️
I'm not saying she's lying but lets be honest nobody knows she's telling the truth either. It's still a he said she said story. There's no court case that's going to come out of this because there's no evidence just her anecdote. Of course everyone's aware by now he's piece of shit so I guess it makes no difference whether she's telling the truth or not. However unless you know someone personally and have a fairly good knowledge of their character it's very stupid to make a judgement on it one way or the other. You don't know. You're just a fan of hers so you're going to believe her based on that. This is how a lot of people think about things. Purely emotionally.
Also, there's fear that if you're in the entertainment industry (and you want to keep working in that vicinity) and if you publicly call powerful people out on their bad behavior, you'll in effect, get blacklisted. This is in no small part, why Harvey Weinstein was able to get away with what he was accused of for so long.
I wasn’t raped but I suffered narcissistic abuse for six years. I get told you stayed because you wanted to be abused, get over it we all have experiences and trauma etc
@@rumboyrumbles2157 So what are you doing here?
What still shocks me to this day is the fact that so many women don't support rape victims.
Boris82much Absolutely true.
I very much believe Charlotte, most of the Weinstein and Epstein victims, and Dylan Farrow. I don’t believe Tara Reade. Aronson (Woody Allen’s sister) rallies support for Allen no matter what.
Why do you think that is? because so many are liars
@@adrian72300 Because they're fucking losers. Enough said.
@@adrian72300 I think it's because they are narcissistic and in narcissism it's the norm to blame the victim. I think it's because these are the type of people who have the mentality and the type of thinking that they would rape and think it's okay.
At 8:00 when she said she traveled to the US to give a testimony to the DA, she is spending her own money..when she is consulting a lawyer for advice prior to travelling, she is spending her own money.. One can't take for granted the financial efforts a woman have to make when seeking Justice. To speak up costs time, nerve and money!! Heartbreaking..
She sounds credible. I don't even understand why media would even focus on the ridiculous prostitute-accusation, because even if that was true,, she would still be a CHILD and he would still be guilty of RAPE and CHILD ABUSE. So that's a non-argument. It's deliberate victim-shaming. I feel bad for her, God bless her or speaking out.
My thoughts exactly!
Some people think that you cannot rape a sex worker
on top of it, he would be guilty of sleeping with a child prostitute and supporting human trafficking
🎯
roman said the same thing about other victims. that they were whores
ALL: We encourage you to take the time and watch the whole film as it contains many revelations that you might want to be aware of.
Please, read this.
I am muslim and I suffer a lot when people speak bad about my religion. I want to say that honor killings are forbid in Islam and people doing this are completely not approved by Islam and also from the Civil law of Muslim countries.
I want to say that no one spoke about the other side of honor killing :NOT JUST THE ADULT WOMEN VICTIMS OF RAPE ARE KILLED BUT ALSO CHILDREN VICTIMS OF PAEDOPHILIA ARE USUALLY KILLED ACCORDING TO THIS DISGUSTING SYSTEM OF VALUES ABSOLUTELY NOT APPROVED BY ISLAM BUT UNFORTUNATELY STILL HAPPENING IN MUSLIM COUNTRIES. PLEASE, IF YOU MAKE A VIDEO OR A DOCUMENTARY ON THIS YOU WHOULD BE THE FIRST ONE. JUST REMARK THE FACT THAT THIS IS NOT ISLAM.
We now see clearly why so many never report these predators What a disgusting situation
So basically he honed in on the fact that you were vulnerable and without a strong family support system. Once he groomed you to trust him, you were already considered "fair game" by that predator. The entire entertainment industry is wicked and totally vile and oppressive towards women! I'm so sorry this happened to you! But I am so glad that you survived and spoke out again because holding this kind of darkness in destroys the soul! We are living in a different era now in terms of exposing darkness and the collective waking up from their mind controlled slumber about what goes on in the industry! You are believed! I believe you! And so do thousands more. And you are saving countless women who would have otherwise gone naively into the industry like a sheep to slaughter. #KeepShining!
A brave authentic beautiful woman. Your Son will be proud of you and is very lucky to have a Mother such as you. ♥️
Just know, this one random youtuber thinks you're a virtue-signalling twit.
Just because you survive a horrifying experience, doesn't mean you can survive the survival. Intrusive thoughts on a daily basis, PTSD, inability to trust others, nightmares...the list goes on. To survive and grow is an achievement all its own. More power to Miss Lewis.
Very good point! Surviving the survival… that can also be a new horrific trauma.
If it ever even happened. I'm sure his side is totally different.
EMDR therapy can permanently relieve the intrusive thoughts and flashbacks.
AAABSOLUTELY.❤️🙏❤️
@nonenone BULLLL SH IT.-that loser has even Admitted to liking childrrn and has hurt many,-do yer research dumb asss its called the internet.
Poor lady... As if getting raped wasn't traumatic enough, on it's own.
What people need to understand is the fact that sometimes young girls fall into these traps because they are so naive. These predators know that, they know how to manipulate.
I believe you Charlotte
Anyone who doesn't believe her is la fool.
Same.
Deeply
I don't think that was ever in question
Hows yo day devi
Brave lady - can’t believe this man still part of Hollywood and they praise him - 🤢 x
I worked on a childrens ward in the 1980’s.
Mostly ‘social problems’ rather than madical health issues from babies to teenage.
After witnessing the results of gross abuse of these children, I quickly realised that such abuse occurred through all classes of society, inflicted on children by men and/or women. Instigated to satisfy a sexual desire...... (obviously in an unnatural unacceptable form of gratification).
That was appalling to witness and I will never forget the sadness I felt for these children.
BUT THERE WAS MUCH MORE DEVASTATING A SITUATION TO COME FOR THOSE CHILDREN.....as for this lady when she declared the abuse she had suffered...........
The legal system unfortunately was not on the side of these children (as we see for this lady, Roman Polanski is still unpunished).
Presenting the cases in court for these children, (victims), was a challenge to say the least. The child had to say verbally what abuse they had encountered or demonstrate physically on a specially modified doll that had genitals etc not usually found on toys to enable that. This was a complicit part of the evidence required to get the case to court let alone given a judgement.
The physical scars that were immediately evident on medical examination, the extremely unusual and unexpected social behaviour and psychological problems displayed by the children were not enough unfortunately to get the case to court. (Often the children would not even recognise abuse for what it was and why would they?)
As a result of this, when we had not managed to retrieve the ‘court case required’ verbal or physical demonstration of the abuse from the child, the child was then returned to the environment they were in before their admission to hospital.
An absolute disaster and a dark, dark future for the victims of the abuse.
The point here is that when these issues are discussed, fingers are pointed at the victims or abusers accusingly which may be right or wrong at the time.
But the fact that the legal system is not required to address these issues correctly, the awful situation is allowed to continue.
It has to said and understood that there will always be abusers with or without an adequate legal system, but with an adequate legal system giving these victims a chance to be brought up in a caring environment away from abusers would be the answer.
A legal system that gives provision for victims to be heard and punishment to be given to the abuser.
There wasn't a law protecting the wife against abuse until 1988. So, I guess girls are even held of less importance.
You are so right, the problem is so pervasive in America. Read the book "The Body Keeps The Score" by Bessel Van Der Kolk, MD,
Even with good laws they need the support of child protective services that need to have more strength. Plus lawyers who know how to prosecute these type crimes
Mothers who delivered their daughters to Polanski are to blame, not him.
Are there any child actors that aren't messed up?? Maybe parents should take more accountability for what happens to their children in the industries they allow them to work as minors.
Thank you for sharing your story.
It is typical of every sphere of victims subjected to sexual abuse. I.m 63 years old and had my son at 38. When he was 4yrs old,unbeknown to me , I found out he was being abused by his biological father. Despite 2.5 years of court ordered trauma abuse therapy, my child was forced to be heavily medicated , see his abuser supervised on a weekly and oftetimes biweekly basis, ,only to be retraumatized and wind up being invalidated on a weekly basis for years.
This was turned into a custody case, I was gag ordered and both my son and I were forced to comply. I am from the USA and this occurred in 1999 and still goes on today.
No criminal charges were ever filed and this case was almost immediately transferred to Family Court where it remained for years, causing untold emotional and financial damage to the both of us.
1in 4 girls and 1 in 5 boys by the age of 15yrs are sexually assaulted, usually by an immediate family member. . If you consider how most cases go unreported and they do nothing,sadly to say it probably is 1 in 2 and 1 in 3!
The biggest industry today is human trafficking, which comes to almost 4 trillion.
It.s everywhere and rampant. Very sick and sad.
There is a code of silence and enablement across the board because of the reality of how evil and pervasive this abomination truly is on every level.
I do not believe that much is different today. There are exceptions in which justice occurs, but considering the reality and the rampant reality of how widespread this abomination is, this hasn't changed much for the victims.
Thank you for sharing this important story.
May you continue to heal ,find peace and joy.
How terrible what happened to you and your son. All my love to you both.
Oh god, reading this one would think it's better to take the law into your own hands!
Well spoken and yes: if anything, it has gotten worse. I pray we are seeing this evil empire fall in our lifetime. 💯🔥🙏🏼
@epiphany of veritas Thanks for adding this to the thread - it's so incredibly important to give the broader ghastly social context. Thank you for understanding the importance of educating. Acknowledged and appreciated. What a terrible, ongoing gruelling task. Best wishes to you as you continue your work.
GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR SON❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️💕❤️🌺❤️
I really appreciate this. It's so true! The "ideal victim" doesn't exist. A victim is a victim. Unfortunately victims exist.
SURVIVORS❤️🙏❤️🌺❤️💕❤️
It is heartbreaking to hear the names of the actresses that backed him. My opinion of them has hit a new low point. I will never watch one of their movies anymore than I would watch Woody Allens movies either. God bless you and your son on your journey. One day he will realize what a hero you are.
Back when there was no internet,my mom told about Woody Allen and why she'd never watch his movies,and there was no way for me to do any research on that....but I thought my mom was wrong,or that she didn't get the facts right,I genuinly believed the man who married his stepdaughter would not be allowed into the society.
I think you should make a distinction between someone's hideous nature and their talent. You can be a terrible human being and be very talented/smart.
@@liamthewarrior I have questions.
If I was a sexual predator in Hollywood, people knew this, my career remained unaffected, the actors in the industry continued to support and work with me, my movies continued to make money, what would motivate me to stop?? If actors and actresses can support accused abusers in the industry without consequences, then what hope is there for vulnerable new young talents trying to make it in the industry? What would motivate the industry to make any changes??
I’ve also boycotted all of them
Liam picoto....why would ever WANT to support a psycho because they have “talent”?
A rapist because they have “talent?” Why would anyone want to spend their money watching a rapists film? Which makes THEM money..... no thanks!
She should sue the papers that slandered her. Somebody please rep this woman pro bono!
TRULY.!!!!!
Hi Charlotte, you look so beautiful and I'm very touched by your story. My daughter Lalana was in the same class with your beautiful son. I do remember the day when you publicly came forward with your story, one off the first few Actresses to do so.
I wish all the glory to you and your lovely family 🍀
How sweet that you reached out. ✨
Violetta Muyingo That’s so kind of you to say , How funny are children were in the same class .
At 25:45 talking about protecting the abuser. How and why does this happen ? I've seen it in others, even when they aren't aware of childhood abuse and i am trying to deal with it myself. It's like a part of me betrays my hurt when I protect him. Is it something to do with the intimacy and heightened emotions of abuse ? I just don't know but loving the abuser is so much harder than hating him.
@@lorimiller4301 why does this happen? it's a primal desire to get aprovel that she is a 'good' girl. as she didn't have a father figure, she didn't have an example of how to be loved. predators smell this in their prey. an abusive father also 'teaches' this kind of behavior. they don't teach/:give love. they abuse. it's a strange action for a healthy mind. but a child wants to survive and will do anything to do so. and when having such kind of childhood, in their adult life they will keep acting as a 'child' to survive. she was 16, not an adult that had experienced a proper example of how man should treat woman. her example was absent.
@@lorimiller4301 I have feeling that one possible explanation behind protecting the abuser is that they're too much of a money maker. Look at for example, Dan Schneider and how long Nickelodeon seemed to tolerate him. I don't have time to go through all of the behind the scenes details or backstory. But it couldn't have been too surprising that Nickelodeon and Viacom appeared to look the proverbial other way as long as his tween sitcoms made money and got great ratings.
I 100% understand the narcissistic control, the date rape, the brain washing and the vulnerability of a teenager. He groomed her, confused her by blurring her lines of reality. I've been date raped by a neighbour when I was 17 so understand it. Also I understand the way a young girl blames herself and feels like it was her fault because of gas lighting! I understand the way you have to function afterwards because of the working relationship or in my case because he was a neighbour. I understand the shame that goes along with it which is devastating when your adult self looks at it properly. Teenage girls are very susceptible to this kind of manipulation because you naively go into the world and think that you can trust people when in fact many people take advantage of children and young adults!
Regardless of the abuse you got which is sickening, it's good that you came forward. It takes strength and the courage to overcome negative feelings such as shame and guilt and a openness to speak the truth so that awareness can be spread! Paedophiles and rapists operate in the dark, they operate under a level of fake charm and friendliness to take advantage of someone's trust. It's really sick! Violent rapists are easier to differentiate because it's straightforward but with covert rapists, it's really disorientating and confusing! The sickening thing is the way they go on normally afterwards and find their next victim! Never a accept a drink from anyone even a cup of tea or coffee, always make sure you're there to keep tabs on your drink. Never leave your drink lying around anywhere, even if you're just nipping to the toilet. There's lots of covert rapists who use the date rape drugs!
I feel sorry for you
What bullshit.
WORD,ON ALL!!!-F THESE "naysayers"☝️🤨🤨🤨
F OFFF ridley and nononone-YOU HAVE ZERO CLUE--NONE NONE.
💗I’m sorry you had to go through this.
Why are the people that back Roman Polanski speaking out against Trump? All of them are no different from each other. This world is just filled with hypocrites.
Good point. Maybe they don’t want to go to prison. Seems like that is what Trump is doing. Notice all this came out under his presidency. Have you read 2 of the Executive Orders that support the abused, the children who have been trafficked.
@@EstephaniaLeBaron-Rios I think that explains a lot of why he's been more viciously attacked than any other President.
I think they're very scared
CensorTube Great point
The same people legalising paeodophillia in California controlled by the sick 1% who send their orders down.
Covid 19 is a money scam now they're going to poison our kids with untested vaccinations contsining DNA ALTERING MATTER !
Who's story about Trump raping them do you believe?
I am so sorry Charlotte this happened to you & that you were ostracised by people who believed the lies made up about your character.
Thank you for your bravery & truth.
Stockholm Syndrome is so so soooo tricky. I've spent 10 years in this. It is a twisted place.
Look into Elizabeth smart appeasement process. You are a survivor! A fighter.
Shame on Emma Thompson, then she goes around giving interviews about Harvey Weinstein and pretends to care? Her and Kate Winslet and Ian McGregor make me sick.
Also, go look on RUclips what Kim Cattrall had to say about working with Roman Polanski under the title "Kim Cattrall on Roman Polanski".
It's truly sickening how many spineless creatures there are, disguised as humans .... Why would anyone defend a predator like Polanski? SMH
It just breaks my heart, that it happened to a 16 year old and still goes unpunished
OMG Roman Polanski acts as if this is okay . So vile.
Sallie DM His fans think/ believe his * artistry * makes him untouchable 🤢🤮👹👺👿💩 This will always be hanging over his head and should be on his tombstone.....
All the actors and actresses who wanted to be in his movies defended him, so disgusting what people will do for money.
He honestly.thinks he did nothing wrong. 🤮
@@mrsmucha I'm not one to name name, but Google Debra Winger + Roman Polanski if you have the time and you'll immediately be both bewildered and disgusted.
The people who disliked this are Whoopi, Ewan, Kate, Emma, Meryl, and all the other sick and twisted actors that support this piece of garbage, likely because they are just the same. I was molested 23 years ago by my stepfather and am just now coming to terms with it to find healing. I relate so much to Charlotte's story of healing. I, too had a son that changed my mind about men and helped me to heal and finally stand up for what was right. Personally, I am grateful she shared her story. All victims need to share this to spread awareness, as unfair as it is to be hurt yet again by ignorant/evil people. Silence perpetuates the cycle. Using our voices help to break the chains of bondage and perhaps set many free or prevent more from happening. The more that come forward, the harder it is to discredit them all.
I abhore those named actors!
Your being a victim doesn't make her a victim. Victims are real, not self-selected.
@@nonenoneonenonenone shut up Roman
I don’t watch movies anymore, some of this people are sickening. I know I can avoid every evil one in this world, but after you learned of someone like that, do not endorse their work, ever.
AAAMEN!!!!!!!!!!!❤️🙏❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💪❤️
Charlotte stay strong, the walls are crumbling down on all these horrible people. Thank you for sharing your very personal but extremely important message - you are giving a voice and courage to millions of women globally.
ABSOLUTELY 100 PERCENT❤️🙏❤️💕❤️🌺❤️💕❤️
You articulate the culture of the devaluation and the attempted annihilation of the victim so well, Charlotte.
This is too long. She should've just made a concise, ten twelve thirteen minutes, not a whole hour.She's losing us now
But if you didn’t come out...despite the harshness you experienced...you still would have been speaking the truth that he was a child rapist and you were assaulted. You had to tell your story. I know it was terribly difficult but any future victims I am sure, would thank you.
You were brave.
Thank You.
She is so strong .
She is so brave for coming out about her story.
I also left most of my relationships and never loved any of them. Early sexual abuse killed any potential for a healthy intimate relationship.
So true. 💔💔💔
Thank you for speaking up. It’s so sad that you went thru this all on your own. You are stronger for it. However, I feel for the loss you had to endure.
I AM DONE WITH HOLLYWOOD. PERIOD.
I've been done with them for years, and I was at the movies every week. I havent bee to a movie in more than ten years I refuse to give these scumbags a penny of my money. I hardly watch tv anymore either, trust me its the best decision I ever made.
I think I finally have to make this decision, as well. Not only are there so many stories like Charlotte’s, but even the, ‘art,’ itself has had detrimental impact on my life. I wish I’d never started watching TV or movies. What do y’all do for entertainment now? RUclips, books, anything else? Go out into the real world? Lol
This woman's account has a strong ring of truth to it. I BELIEVE EVERY WORD SHE SAYS.
Charlotte Lewis is a class act
Thank you , Thats made my day
Truth always triumph in the end.👍
CF Lalrindiki I agree with that belief too , Thank you for your comment . Charlotte
Nice to watch beautiful strong woman to move positivity in her darkness experience...
Thank you for watching!
We who are survivors are treated badly because we live in a world where abuse of others is permitted and even enabled.
It's disgusting.
Imposing your sexual desires on others is wrong.
It's not our crime.
Yet we do the time while the world fails to get it.
Brave woman sad that she was treated so bad When she came forward.
this takes incredible strength. thank you for sharing your experience ❤️ this happens all too often, especially in the industry and it’s great that things like this are becoming less normalized, and viewed as abuse no matter who is involved.
Even if a child was throwing themselves at an adult. It is the adults responsibility to remove themself from the situation.
I'm never beyond disturbed at these stories. Makes me nauseous. I'm glad she told her story.
I remember being 15, almost 16 and having a crush on this guy. He was 32 or 35 and I thought I was in love. I remember he was married and he notice the way I was when he went to my place of work. I blushed, I wanted to be the one to help him. Anyways, few years later I met him again, and he told me how cute I was, and he said he would never take it advantage of me. And he said he was married at that time, and he thought I was too young. I was so glad he said that and the way he understood what was going on with me. I always like older man since then.
Interesting that the person doing the captioning just put that the question was "inaudible " when asked about Whoopi goldberg's "was it rape-rape" comment. I heard the words loud and clear - why not put whoopi goldberg's name in the captions attributing those idiotic comments to her?
We are so sorry about that, but we could not hear the entire question so it was partially inaudible indeed, but Charlotte repeats Whoopi Goldberg's name after the director's questions, we thought it's enough for people to understand. #WhoopiTheEnabler
I can't believe somone could say that....whoopi is a moron
Whoopi told a 14 year old boy actor she's going to have sex with him, the guy from How I Met Your Mother! He confronted her on a talk show, and she said it was easier to have fun back then... strange woman
@@Ida-Adriana You know nothing yet you write a comment. How stupid is that? Here you have what actually was said: Harris: She told me, I was 15, 16 years old, she told me on my last day of shooting that in 10 years’ time she was going to have sex with me,” Whoopie: “He had many questions as a kid, so I said, ‘Listen, wait 10 years, and I’ll take you through it.’ In those days, you could actually have some fun like that. You can’t do that now. People get very upset now.”
Sounds better now?
Nvr Mnd Sounds like a bad joke. Inappropriate but hardly the end of the world. Maybe focus on real crimes.
She looks so young and so beautiful inside and out!! Don’t regret coming forward cuz ur child one day will be proud and know it was the right thing to do!
I wonder what the connections are between manson and polanski. Polanski was accused of the rape of a 13 year old girl after the murder of his wife sharon tate. He fled to italy. As horrible as manson was he did say we never really knew who the monsters where or something like that. Always found this connection interesting.
There was zero connection. Only some bullshit theories made up by the press.
There is absolutely a connection. Both attended the church of Satan and were friends of Anton Levy
Never forget Quentin tarantino actually defends Roman
He was on Epstein’s jet.
I have always found QT creepy.
He also was produced by Weinstein
🤢
Brett Ratner in particular, even gave Roman a featured part in Rush Hour 3.
She is so beautiful, gorgeous.
Is Roman Polanski the same man/director who was away for “business” when his pregnant wife and her friends were brutally killed in the Charles Manson murders (MK Ultra)? I’m surprised his involvement was never fully investigated! Maybe it was just the times! Now he would be first suspect... but when you have money... stories can be manipulated and covered up in your favor... I was not born then and have no knowledge but whenever I’ve heard this tale I’ve always found it to be too easy to write it off as the sole responsibility of Charles Mansion a labeled “insane” man at the time! Nope... too bad he was seen as super intelligent and an artist before all of that! Maybe...Manchurian Candidate!?!
You should read the book Chaos: Charles Manson, the CIA, and the Secret History of the Sixties. It will blow your mind!
Exactly!!!!!!
Polanski has been found guilty in a court of law of child rape; and usually by the time any rapist is caught and convicted, statistically, they usually have many more victims that never report the crime.
There may be hundreds of women like Charlotte from polanski alone, and millions more aggregate in the world at large! You have my sympathy and I believe you.
I actually just watched The Golden Child all the way through for the first time in my life at the age of 46 and just happened to hear about this unpleasantness. God Bless you!
*This channel is an amazing gift to women. Thank you Charlotte and RealWomen/RealStories team*
I’m so grateful she is telling her story so clearly and concisely.
But one thing: Jack Nicholson has a reputation among service people. He is smart enough not to sh&# where he eats but he was known among waitresses. He would wait for them in the parking lot after their shift and first try to get them to go with them by simply asking -ok fine- but when they said no he would harass and get angry and keep yelling at them ‘do you know who I am!’ And follow them in his car making demands. They were scared. It was bad. It’s not the end of the world but yeah that’s a guy with a dark side.
Thank you for sharing your story
Amen
Damn,I did't even know about petition,all those "woke" people owe this lady an apology
By speaking up about what had occurred to you and educating yourself to find your true self is just so beautiful and powerful. Your son will someday realize how amazingly strong and brave his mom was, and still is, to tell her story. I 🙏 that your perpetrator will serve time for what he did to you. Wishing you all the best and sending to lot of love and good energy. 💕
Aloha from Hawaii. As the child of a single parent mother I commend you on raising what sounds like a fine son. I also apologize as a man for the trauma you've had to endure as a result of a sociopath. I recall seeing you WAY back in "The Golden Child", (you shone BTW) and wondered what ever happened to you. Remember, no one gets away with anything. I commend you for speaking out as we have no idea how many women your story is positively impacting. Your strength, courage and resilience is inspiring to say the least. Peace and blessings to you and your family.
So sorry that happened to you. Your a strong and brave woman.
An entire point is being missed here....the men calling her a seducing prostitute are admitting to their crime by implying they just HAD to give in to her "seductive" ways. Like they are sex robots incapable of self control. Monsters. Advanced convoluted victim blaming
Thank you Charlotte ❤👈🏽
Thank you for reliving this again.. Though hard, and at an emotional price I'm sure I know nothing about. I appreciate and value your words. Your truth. I believe you. Wishing you and your son peace & success in all areas xxx
Synchronicity I was thinking about this lady the other day and wondered what happened to her I read an interview with her in Interview magazine years ago( early 90s) and was impressed by her intelligence, candor and earthiness even at that young age Good on her for finally coming foward about what Polanski did to her This interview was remarkable and so is she God bless her and her son💝🎆🌹
Oh my god, how cruel can people be with a victim of rape??? And her son as well??? Is this even real 😢😢?
One of the best interviews ever! I've been DYING to hear from her. Thank you so much!!!
NEVER understood what a gorgeous woman Sharon Tate ever saw in him to begin with. Tiny, really odd-looking man.
RIP Sharon but the truth is: he was so talented as a director. This man to your side and you are gonna be rich and famous. Maybe thats all she needed.
@Melanie Jarrett yup... Also he cheated on her couples of times. He wasn't a great boyfriend/husband. If Sharon would been alive what would she thinks about the situation. Also, Jay Sebring R.I.P was Sharon's boyfriend but then stayed as friends, Jay was dating a 15 year old girl and Sharon got furious.
@@charliezbee5665 Sharon Tate didnt need Roman she was making a good living as actress she had plenty offers to do different movie role but Roman was so damn controlling over her he made her turn down different movie role. He was a terrible loudsy husband towards Sharon. He was a very abusive towards her and a notorious womanizer thru their very short relationship and marriage. Roman had also forced sharon to have sex with other men against her will and film it on a homemade video. I did a very thorough search on Roman with his marriage to Sharon. Roman is a real scumbag he wasnt the good loving caring husband to Sharon as he like for everybody to believe he was. Roman was a very terrible person and husband.
@@ronhoward4660 for sure can’t imagine a rapist being a good husband, imagine how low he must think of women, his wife would just be another more permanent object to be abused
@@rosyapplekitchen635 absolutely
you are a amazing woman, having to live through all those years, getting out from it and finally came forward to share your side of the story. so brave.....
The more I read about this guy the more o feel bad about Sharon tate ! She was controlled by him the same way this girl was so sad
She was not,
I don't understand all this emphasis on the word 'prostitute'. Even if a woman is a prostitute and even if she is a grown up prostitute, it still doesn't give anybody right to rape that woman. The fact that woman makes money that way doesn't diminish the crime and make it less of a rape.
"Might not be the image of oerfection for some"??? This brave, strong person endured being manipulated by a child predator. She is a survivor and a well-spoken representative of the need for victim representation. And completely tragic to hear of Polanski's daughter. I can only imagine what kind of existence she has endured, and how she probably never had a childhood. Like Polanski himself. I greatly admired him as a director when I was 16. Now I find it impossible. Charlotte Lewis is an amazing--I can't say a strong enough word to describe her spirit--woman. I believe her absolutely. I would think she could sue the Guardian's a** for slander. Printing lies as truth is really difficult to overcome after the fact. It seems incredible that looking at the facts, she is still doubted and maligned. Absolutely unbelievable. You go, Charlotte. ❤
The moment I hear the accused call the accuser a "prostitute", my hackles go up. Because that Does Not Matter. And if it's being brought up at all, it's a tool of deflection. TRUST SURVIVORS.
You go girl! You are a wonderfully courageous woman and a greatl mom. May you be blessed in your future endeavors.
This woman is gorgeous. I pray for her healing.
Thank you for speaking out.
The "Difference", unfortunately, is the growth, realtime and power of Social Media.
Indeed. Social media brings down all the corrupted media that fed us crap for many decades!
the same thing happened to me ....only with a cult leader very few people believe me, and those who do, accused me of seducing him, and causing him to fall total lies! i had the heart and mind of a child (i was 30 years old) and HE! seduced me into believing the men of god in the Bible had many wives.....so it was an honor that he chose me..........wickedness to the core!
I believe you. 🥰🙏🏼🔥💯
How old are you now?
Danke!
i also developed an eating disorder that devastated the next 20 years of my life
Thank you for being so brave ❤ praying for your complete healing ❤️🩹 🙏🏽
i am suprised more girls have not come forward regarding polanski ?
How does this video only have 12k views? Is this being suppressed in some way? :/ Wtf
Then help us spread the word, share as much as you can, please. Thanks!
REALWOMEN/REALSTORIES I am! People need to hear her story.
@@taytayqueen7024 THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
People care more about TikTok
RUclips bots supress "risqué" material nowadays. They even get it demonitised.
Sometimes these agencies/managers are the “pimps” in the scenario!
Exactly !! That's why so needed to keep sharing!
The man always is able to pass the blame onto the female and come away clean!
True however females are able to blame men for their own behavior too
She's so brave. It's awful what happened to her, I wish her all the happiness in the world
I hope you return to your acting career whenever you are ready. You are a beautiful, intelligent and strong woman. I wish you you and your child much Blessing and Happiness!!
So beautiful, such a terribly horrific story. You're so brave for coming forward. I'm wondering where you are from? Such a nice, interesting accent!! So horrible that your child was being treated poorly also. I hope life is smoother now. You're a warrior.x
Boys get abused as well, so it is very hard to know what to do as . Roman should be in jail . There is no excuse for what he did and no matter how old he is.
and this explains perfectly why victims don't come forward immediately. if this man has done this once why would people think he wouldn't keep doing it. this is his burden to bare not hers.
No, thank you for bravely speaking up. And take to heart that doing this and speaking about it, you have helped the many like you, who as victims have been victimized by those predators and their shameless supporters. Ka pai 💗
I have always thought the Roman had a hand in his wife's murder.
Take a look at Sloan Bellas physic reading on her. .....Its very interesting.....j
I was literally just thinking this.
I've heard he sold photos of the crime scene to the press within a week of her murder.
@@trishadrozdowski3798 hi Trisha
Take a look at the John Todd lectures and it will validate your suspicions.
For sure there is someone who thinks you also had a hand in it!
My dear Charlotte. My heart goes out to you. I’m so sorry this happened to you. You were and are still one of the most beautiful I’ve ever seen on the screen. You are brave and strong for speaking out about these heinous acts and you have my full support. I believe you!!
So glad everyone who have been through such things are getting a voice having a platform to talk about it. Education will teach everyone. These people need exposing, God bless you x
You are worth a thousand Kate Winslets because you are true and haven't sold your soul for fame, you spoke up against the evil Hollywood machine which is tremendously brave of you. God bless you and your family may you find justice and peace. ♥ 🙏 😇
Wow I hope she sees what u wrote ..that’s so sweet❤..
I’m glad that you came forward ❤️... it was harder for your time period but you opened the door for what is happening now. The fire you walked through has led the path for what we are seeing today. Thank you 🙏🏼
Deepest respect to you Charlotte, for your candor and bravery. Being a lighthouse keeper is often a lonely, windy, bleak task, but that light saves lives. Hitting rocks is never inconsequential. Shifting such experiences into something that expands awareness, affirms truth, and then being prepared to build a lighthouse on the site, one that helps ourselves and others, really is a noble monument and alchemy of such events. That kind of strength is understood entirely by other lighthouse keepers. Blessings and Peace to your heart.
I totally understand your experience with wanting to please your abuser. I understand it, I get it, and it is a very real thing. It’s like you go on automatic pilot . It is really crazy. That’s why I never judge a person experiencing abuse and not leaving. Your make up can’t get you out yet. It takes time and growth into your own self esteem to wake up. And still there’s Doubt in yourself. So glad to hear your voice , thank you for sharing 💗
Thank you for telling your story - you are a brave woman
I am so, so sorry you went through this, any of this.
The culture was not woke years ago! We are now! The kids are growing up and getting smarter and stronger! Money protects money! Sooo sorry for your experiences! You are SO strong!
Money protects money! Well said! This is it. The core of the problem.
I believe you and I am glad you came forward courageously.
Thank you for your bravery, Charlotte. May you and your child be blessed.
I'm so sorry you went through this, breaks my heart:(
