While Farid Khider announced in the show “Facing Hanouna” that Gérard Depardieu no longer intended to shoot for the cinema again, this February 11, 2024, a television actor has just come to the defense of the sacred monster. It’s David Brécourt, star of the series “Under the sun“, who spoke on C8.
“This way of beating up Depardieu disgusts me“
In the show “Jordan’s”he blurted out: “This way of bashing Depardieu disgusts me. I don’t think this man is a rapist. He is a gentleman who is extremely rude. I respect it because it’s my whole childhood, my whole cinema. And I love this guy, for me he is gargantuan, he is Shakespearean. I think he’s a pig, who behaved very badly, but I don’t think he’s a rapist. And I’m very clear about that.”. And to add: “I don’t care if it’s annoying. We don’t know, I’m not in the justice system, there is a presumption of innocence. At the same time, it’s not my business to talk about that. The guy is rude, we know that. I loved this show he did on France 5, ‘A pleins dents’. It was great. He’s a guy, I met him 2-3 times, I could speak with him“.
While in the process, two other filmmakers, namely Benoît Jacquot and Jacques Doillon, are also accused of bad behavior, by the actress Judith Godrèche, David Brécourt tackled: “It’s horrible, and then when it’s not him, it’s someone else, another case, we crush the person until he’s crushed to the ground, but it’s terrible. When there’s a presumption of innocence, when we don’t know what. There, he will perhaps be tried, and if he is tried, justice will do its work”.
“That’s my opinion, and fuck the others”
Little concerned about the criticism to which he exposes himself, the colleague of Adeline Blondieau, Bénédicte Delmas and Tonya Kinzinger deplored: “This feminism goes very, very far. Here we tackle a subject which, truly, is terrible. There are people who have done terrible things, I agree, but let’s let justice do its job. We know that Depardieu is a guy like that, a guy who is rude“. And to conclude: “Depardieu when things get a little too drunk he must come out with horrible profanities. But to force a girl, I don’t believe it. That’s my opinion, and fuck the others.”
