“Would you rather I call you female dog or little slut?”: actor Gérard Darmon accused of sexist and sexual violence by nine women

These women speak of insults, non-consensual physical contact, and propositions of a sexual nature. The oldest facts revealed by Politis date from 2018. That year, the actor, now 76 years old, filmed “You are young, you are beautiful”. He plays the main role. The youngest, a 19-year-old intern at the time, describes a man “very honeyed, pressing his kisses to the corner of his mouth”, reports Le Parisien in particular. One day, in the middle of filming, he said to her: “We can make love, you can come to my house”.

“It’s okay, you’re not going to give me a MeToo!”

She rejects his advances, reminding him that she is “his children's age.” A refusal that Gérard Darmon would not have supported. Afterwards, “he spoke extremely badly to me. He said to me “hello female dog, do you prefer that I call you female dog or little slut?” “, she remembers. She informed the production but ended up leaving the set. “Production did not protect me. She did not want to put me in safety and favored the actor and the continuation of the film,” she assures. According to Politis, who collected her testimony, the young woman filed a complaint against the production for non-protection.

A first assistant director also says that Gérard Darmon slipped his hand between her thighs when saying hello. “It’s okay, you’re not going to give me a MeToo!” », he would have told him. In all, nine women spoke out during the Politis investigation without wishing to be quoted. No complaint has been filed against Gérard Darmon. The actor completely denies these accusations.
