A Polish film company said Tuesday that Oscar-winning director Roman Polanski has traveled to Poland to appear in a documentary about his early life during the Holocaust and after the war in Poland. The 84-year-old director also visited the village of Wysoka, where he was in hiding after fleeing the Krakow ghetto. Since he fled the U.S., Polanski mostly has lived in Paris, where he was born. His travels have since been restricted to France as well as to Poland and Switzerland, where authorities have rejected U.S. requests for his extradition. Polanski won an Academy Award for best director for his 2002 film "The Pianist" and was nominated for 1974's "Chinatown" and 1979's "Tess."
