  • Nearly 60 French actors and other prominent figures have denounced the "lynching" of disgraced cinema legend Gerard Depardieu, who is charged with rape and facing a litany of sexual assault claims. Last week French President Emmanuel Macron said Depardieu had become the target of a "manhunt", while his family has denounced an "unprecedented conspiracy" against him.

    The documentary and his own voice were clear enough. He is and was wrong. No defending him.

    I was a big fan of Depardieu in the 80s. UNTIL he himself gave an interview in which he described the rape of a woman in which he participated. He demonstrated remorse, but I've never seen him in the same way since. So, it isn't difficult to imagine a repeat offense. What kind of man would EVER participate in a sexual assault???

    If french actors' "art" is in danger of dying over allegations against one man, I'd say their "art" is already on life-support and probably isn't worth saving.

    being accused of a sexual assault is not being cancelled, being an actor is not a legal defense of legal immunity against prosecution. France treats criminals as victims and victims as criminals.

      good, I'm tired of USA believing allegations as real facts and punishing the accused even if he was proven innocent

    Did he not get a Russian passport an exited France?

    Why not not repeat the 'comments' he made in North Korea, that would clarify a lot.

    Yet another example where people rush to defend those accused of bad behavior, crimes, etc. It’s so much smarter to say nothing and wait for more information to come out, than to look bad and have to retract your comments. When you’re a celebrity your foolishness about misplaced loyalty never leaves the Internet. Their agents have surely told them this.

    The onus of proof falls on to the accuser(s) --- all this says is that he has a lot of enemies.

    There has always been accusations.... Seems the truth will prevail.

    we should be more worried about Lactalis hiding the salmonella from their products

    That he traveled to North Korea is troubling. He has been living in Russia for some time now.

    Him and Christian Clavier are my favorite French Actors.

      @cerealpeer Před 5 měsíci +4

      ... are they also the only french actors you can think of? that would be quite the coincidence.

    • @EricMcDowellegm
      @EricMcDowellegm Před 5 měsíci +1

      I would also add Benoît Magimel to that list.

      ​@@EricMcDowellegmThere are no french actors. Everything they do is so wooden, as to make it irrelevant

      My favorite French actor is Daniel Auteuil.

    Why wait almost 30 years to make an allegation?

      @twilightgardenspresentatio6384 Před 5 měsíci +9

      Why deny an allegation without cause?

      You deny false accusations because they still do harm ​@@twilightgardenspresentatio6384

      He admitted to raping a woman. In an interview. I remember because I was so shocked by it. I had held him in high regard before that.
