Gérard Depardieu was a giant. Why it just seems embarrassing and obscene today

France has been upset about Gérard Depardieu for days. Once again. Footage has emerged showing him making obscene and vulgar comments to girls aged around ten. The scandal is part of a series of incidents – and also sheds light on the French relationship to #MeToo in particular.

A week ago a documentary about Gérard Depardieu was shown on French television. You saw scenes there that were almost unbearable. They are from 2018, when the actor was visiting North Korea. An interpreter accompanied him. In front of the camera, Depardieu continually confronts her with sexual innuendos: how she would think of him in the shower, her little pussy, how his cock looked like it was made of wood, etc. The woman just laughed obsequiously. What else is she supposed to do, it’s North Korea.
