'Fabric' of French cinema: Could film icon Depardieu be 'completely written out of history books'?
French screen legend Gerard Depardieu was detained for questioning on Monday in connection with alleged sexual assaults against two women on separate film sets, police sources said. Depardieu, one of France's top movie stars, has been at the centre of a growing number of sexual assault allegations in recent years that have tarnished his legacy and exposed broader divisions about sexual conduct in France. As French cinema faces its own reckoning amid numerous allegations of sexual assault spanning decades, FRANCE 24's Genie Godula is joined by AFP's Culture Editor Eric Randolph.

Dozens of women have been accusing him of SA since the 90s and he's only being indicted NOW?
He is punished for his political positions, it has nothing to do with sexual harassment, he has always been known to be a savage with no ethics, especially around women.
Someone brushed up against me back in 1992 where do I file a claim of abuse? LOL
Why would you write him out of history books? He's an actor. The material is make-believe so why would it have any difference on real life?
There's always been something about him I don't like.
