I used to enjoy some of his films, but lately? I just can't do it. I'm not sure if his style has changed or if it's because I've seen his public behavior. Either way- I'm no longer a fan.

I agree that works of art ought to be viewed on their own merits, but knowing sordid facts about the creator sometimes puts me off no matter how much I previously liked their work.
