Guest on the show Professional Time presented by Pascal Praud on CNews Wednesday November 13, 2024, the one who has just released his latest film Eventually shared his vision of the couple and infidelity: “ Married women should thank mistresses. Very often when we go elsewhere we are happy to come home. »
Comparison with a fridge
Married to the novelist Valérie Perrin, Claude Lelouch declared a few days earlier in an interview with La Tribune Sunday that we could change women when you found something better ».
On the Cnews set, the producer, divorced three times and father of seven children from five different women, went even further: “ When I say that we are faithful until we find something better, it’s true whether it’s for a car, a woman, a fridge, anything…”.
When the presenter Pascal Praud tells him that these statements will lead to “ big problems » with immediate reactions from women denouncing the sexism of the speech, the filmmaker gets annoyed: “ You didn't understand. We are constantly improving the world (…). But it's true that beauty has absolutely incredible virtues and our eyes can't help but wander around and see things. You have to live with all that. »
Words that shocked the web
On social networks, the reactions were not long in coming either. “ Misogyny and reducing women to the status of objects via a superb reification. What a masterclass from Claude Lelouch, very responsive, very boomer », writes a user on X.
Paris councilor Chloé Sagaspe comments: “ What a wreck. @CNEWS continues to trivialize sexism. Women don't thank you. »
