Jerzy Kosiński (Polish pronunciation: [ˈjɛʐɨ kɔˈɕiɲskʲi]; June 14, 1933 – May 3, 1991), born Józef Lewinkopf, was an award-winning Polish-American novelist and two-time President of the American Chapter of P.E.N., who wrote primarily in English. Born in Poland, he survived World War II and, as a young man, emigrated to the U.S., where he became a citizen.
He was known for various novels, among them The Painted Bird (1965) and Being There (1971), which was adapted as an Academy Award-winning film (1979).
Kosiński was born Józef Lewinkopf to Jewish parents in Łódź, Poland. As a child during World War II, he lived in central Poland under a false identity, Jerzy Kosiński, which his father gave to him. A Roman Catholic priest issued him a forged baptismal certificate, and the Lewinkopf family survived the Holocaust thanks to local villagers who offered assistance to Polish Jews, often at great risk. (The penalty for helping Jews in Nazi- Germany-occupied Poland was death for all members of a family and sometimes for the inhabitants of the village). Kosiński's father was assisted not only by town leaders and clergymen, but also by individuals such as Marianna Pasiowa, a member of an underground network that helped Jews evade capture. The family lived openly in Dąbrowa Rzeczycka, near Stalowa Wola, and attended church in nearby Wola Rzeczycka, with the support of villagers in Kępa Rzeczycka. For a time, they were sheltered by a Catholic family in Rzeczyca Okrągła. Jerzy even served as an altar boy in the local church.

Incarcéré dès 1956, à l’âge de 12 ans, Jack Henry Abbott est ce qu’on appelle un « multirécidiviste ». Né d’une mère prostituée, il est abandonné par ses parents lorsqu’il a neuf ans. A vingt-et-un ans, il tue un co-détenu à l’arme blanche. Six ans plus tard, il s’évade pour commettre des vols à main armée. Arrêté à nouveau, Abbott écope d’une peine de dix-neuf ans de réclusion. En 1977, le détenu rebelle apprend que Norman Mailer écrit « Le chant du bourreau » consacré au meurtrier Gary Gilmore qu’Abbott connaît bien. Leur correspondance sur la vie en prison débouche sur le livre « Dans le ventre de la bête ».

Professor Van Heuklom reads and comments on Chapter 1 of Jerzy Kosinski's Being There.
OSCAR WINNER:Best Supporting Actor - Melvyn DouglasPeter Sellers triumphs in his classic performance as an illiterate gardener who is hilariously catapulted into the fast lane of political power. Shirley MacLaine and Academy Award winner Melvyn Douglas co-star. A simple-minded gardener named Chance has spent all his life in the Washington D.C. house of an old man. When the man dies, Chance is put out on the street with no knowledge of the world except what he has learned from television. After a run-in with a limousine, he ends up a guest of a woman (MacLaine) and her husband Ben (Douglas), an influential but sickly businessman. Now called Chauncey Gardner, Chance becomes friend and confidante to Ben, and an unlikely political insider.
A hilarious scene from a truly great film about a very simple-minded gardener who becomes an unlikely trusted advisor to a powerful businessman and an insider in Washington politics. Watch this movie for an absolutely amazing performance by the one and only Peter Sellers and an excellent script by Jerzy Kosinski (based on his book). © All Rights Reserved to original owners. No copyright infringement intended.
What would happen if the American public got the leader it deserved? Peter Sellers plays an innocent and illiterate gardener who ends up the most influential man in Washington, D.C.--simply by Being There. Gentle and slow-witted Chance (Sellers) tends a garden on a palatial estate and knows nothing of the outside world except what he sees watching television. Then a limousine hits him, and everything changes. Elevated to celebrity status by the limousine's powerful passenger, Eve Rand (Shirley MacLaine), Chance charms everyone, including the President of the United States (Jack Warden). Can his simple but wise gardening metaphors solve the country's complex problems? Chance helps peace grow and flourish in this comic, cautionary fable about the power of simplicity.
Being There is a 1979 American comedy-drama film directed by Hal Ashby. Adapted from the 1970 novella by Jerzy Kosinski, the screenplay was by Kosinski and the uncredited Robert C. Jones. The film stars Peter Sellers, Shirley MacLaine, Melvyn Douglas, Jack Warden, Richard A. Dysart, and Richard Basehart. Douglas won the Academy Award for Best Actor in a Supporting Role and Sellers was nominated for Best Actor in a Leading Role. The screenplay won the 1981 British Academy of Film and Television Arts (Film) Best Screenplay Award and the 1980 Writers Guild of America Award (Screen) for Best Comedy Adapted from Another Medium. It was also nominated for the 1980 Golden Globe Award for Best Screenplay. Being There was the last Peter Sellers film to be released while he was alive. The making of ...
