‘Because of you, I couldn’t see Jay Chou’: Malaysian fan goes into labour before concert at Bukit Jalil stadiumThe trial of French film legend Gerard Depardieu , who is charged with rape and is facing a litany of other sexual assault claims, is to open on October 28, 2024. — File pic via AFPFRANCE, Oct 28 — Gerard Depardieu was known for more than 50 years as a titan of French cinema, but details of his crude behaviour and allegations of sexual violence have brought his star low in recent years.
Audiences and fellow creatives long appreciated his brash, often deliberately offensive character—only for those qualities to begin counting against him in recent years. The criticisms did nothing to harm Depardieu’s career, as he went on to be crowned with France’s version of an Oscar, the 1981 Cesar award for “Le dernier metro” directed by Francois Truffaut.
The late 90s and early 2000s brought commercial success with live-action adaptations of the Asterix comic books and dramas like police thriller “36, Quai des Orfevres”, but the actor did not reach his previous artistic heights. Where Depardieu’s antics—such as urinating on board a plane in 2011 -- had once drawn laughs, he now became a liability.
