If you use the example of someone like Eric Cantona, I think his talent and his turbulent temper were tied together... I can believe that he played the game in a different way to anyone else. His mind was slightly differently wired. He might laugh off one insult, and launch a king fu kick at another - on the pitch he could be an artist or a hooligan.
But there comes a point where - to the example of Polanski - a paedophile is simply a paedophile. There are car mechanics who are sexally degenerate and I suppose there are film directors too.
