oh I'm not saying that the standing ovation was ridiculous or that the man himself should be honored, I think he is pretty much lower than the crap coming out of my ferret's ass. but the oscar was best director, right? and directing is his work.

If you're going to honor the work, give The Pianist Best Picture. But giving Polanski the Best Director honor is honoring him, not his work per se, and that's just wrong.
