As a critique I think it was deeper than some people gave it credit for... But it wasn't really a critique so much as a confession, and all the "good parts" of that show had that unsettling feeling of not quite being fiction Same as when Polanski directed Death and the Maidenhttps://twitter.com/sleary/status/1363281137888464899 …

So many of Polanski's movies deal with rape. Mostly from the victim's perspective.

He completely tainted the play Venus in Fur for me by doing the film adaptation

SAME. Though even before I realized it was a Polanski movie I don't think I could have watched it again bc it was so deeply disturbing. How can a predator seemingly be so insightful about the harm inflicted by another type of predator??? Aggressive compartmentalizing I guess.

I don't think it is that, I think it's the opposite I think he knew how bad the things he did were and he did them anyway, and he felt the urge to confess his sins in some way to the public while not being strong enough to accept the consequences

I, um, know about this film because co-writer Rafael Yglesias discussed this amidst the context of his own experiencing abuse in Slate
