Roman Polanski Bails Free to Roam

Roman Polanski is out of prison -- and is now trapped in the strict confines of his luxury, 19,000 square foot, three-story Swiss chalet.

The director -- who is fighting extradition to the U.S. for having sex with a 13-year-old girl back in 1977 -- was released after posting $4.5 million bail, clamping on an electronic monitoring device and agreeing to house arrest.

From one big house to another!
