IN BRIEF

• Gérard Depardieu, French actor, is accused of rape and sexual assault, with a controversial sequence broadcast on December 7, 2023 in “Complément d'enquête”.
• The images show Depardieu making sexualizing remarks towards a 12-year-old girl, triggering a legal battle with France Télévisions.
• The rushes, already authenticated, do not favor the actor, adding a worrying dimension to the case in progress.

A true sacred monster of French cinema. Gérard Depardieu was filming one film after another until he was accused of rape and sexual assault by several women. Targeted by several complaints, the actor has always proclaimed his innocence. However, a sequence broadcast on the show Complément d'enquête, on December 7, 2023 on France 2, has further damaged the the actor's public image.

In these famous images, we can see Gérard Depardieu making sexualizing remarks to a 12-year-old girl. “Women love to ride horses. Their clits rub against the saddle knob. They enjoy themselves enormously, they are big sluts”, he notably declared. “If he ever gallops, she enjoys herself. That's my girl, keep going. You see, she scratches there”, he also added the actor during this sequence.

Gérard Depardieu case: the rushes of Complément d'enquête do not pleading in favor of the actor

Since then, these images have been at the heart of a real legal battle between Gérard Depardieu's lawyers and those of France Télévisions. On Friday, October 18, 2024, the Paris Court of Appeal ordered that an expert view the recordings with the different parties. For its part, Téléramahad access to the famous rushes in question, and they are clearly not to the actor's advantage.

In some images, we can see Gérard Depardieu leaning on the barrier of a ride. The actor then notices a giant screen placed high up. On it, he discovers a choir of women in white coats. “Those are nurses singing, there ? They're beautiful sluts, believe me! Pussies, they don't [themselves] shave”, he then launched.

The images of Complément d'enquête have already been authenticated by a bailiff

“You, yours, she shaves. The Russians, they shave a lot so that they make a suction cup on the mouth. The Chinese and Japanese women, they are extremely 'fountain'”, he then added, addressing the person who was right next to him. It was also just at that moment that a little girl sitting on a pony arrives in front of Gérard Depardieu.

As a reminder, France Télévisions had already had the shock passage broadcast in Complément d'enquête authenticated by a bailiff. The latter had also ensured that there was “no doubt and no ambiguity” about the fact that the young girl was the target of Gérard Depardieu's words.
