French actor Judith Godreche files rape complaint against director Benoit Jacquot

<p>Oscar-nominated French actress Isabelle Adjani, best known for ‘Camille Claudel’ and ‘The Story of Adele H.,’ is formally being investigated for alleged fraud involving hundreds of thousands of dollars in business expenses since October 2020, as confirmed by a court source on Monday. The investigation stems from a police complaint filed by a former business associate, Sebastien G., in 2015, according to the French national newspaper 'Liberation', which was the first to report the story, as per Variety.&nbsp;</p>

<p>According to the story published in Liberation, the case dates back to 2011 when Adjani hired Sebastien G. as a strategy consultant to help her run her production company, Isia Films. According to the French report, Sebastien G. received a line of credit for Adjani as well as an American Express card, which he loaded with 364,000 euros (USD 385, 400) over a 13-month period.&nbsp;</p>

<p>He said that he was fired days after he took back the card from Adjani. He said he also loaned her 157,000 euros (USD 166,230) which she had not repaid. After some of Adjani’s assets related to her debts were seized, she filed a lawsuit accusing him of misappropriating company assets.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The case was eventually dropped. Sebastien G. then filed a police complaint in 2015 accusing Adjani of having produced fake payment receipts for the 157,000 euros she was supposed to pay back.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The complaint also involves Mimi Marchand, head of the news agency Bestimage, who allegedly helped Adjani produce these payment receipts. Once the formal investigation is completed, a judge will decide whether to drop the case or put Adjani on trial, as per Variety.</p>

<p>Adjani's latest film, ‘Petra Von Kant,’ directed by Francois Ozon, is scheduled to open in France this week. Inspired by Rainer Werner Fassbinder’s cult film ‘The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant,’ the film was shown on the opening night of the Berlin Film Festival. She also stars in Nicolas Bedos’ heist comedy ‘Mascarade,’ which had its world premiere this year in Cannes.&nbsp;</p>

<p>French actor Valentine Monnier has accused Oscar-winning filmmaker Roman Polanski of sexual assault. The actor has claimed that the 86-year-old director had violently raped her about three decades ago in 1975 when she was just 18.<br />
<br />
"In 1975, I was raped by Roman Polanski. I had no connection to him, personal or professional, and barely knew him. This didn't&nbsp;happen in the fracas of a party there were no drugs, no alcohol. This was an extreme act of violence after we went skiing at his chalet in Gstaad," the news agency&nbsp;quoted her as saying in a statement given to a French publication - Le Parisien.<br />
<br />
While detailing the attack, Monnier added, "He hit me, ripped off my clothes until I surrendered and made me submit to a number of unpleasant acts. I had just turned 18 years old ". However, the charges have been denied by the director's attorneys in a statement given to Le Parisien.<br />
<br />
"Roman Polanski strongly denies all accusation of rape. On a personal note, I can't help but add that the alleged action took place 40 years ago. That they were never, throughout all these long years, brought to the attention of a judiciary authority or to Mr. Polanski. Under these conditions, I strongly protest the release, on the eve of the film's release, of these accusations," the attorneys said.<br />
<br />
Monnier in her statement has further questioned the French title and topic of Polanski's latest feature 'J'Accuse'&nbsp;An Officer and a Spy is the English title, which pictures the wrongful imprisonment of French Army officers Alfred Dreyfus, accused in 1894 of being a German spy.<br />
<br />
In the statement, the French actor has argued that Polanski has tried to "whitewash" his own history by the film. " 'Separate the art and artist',&nbsp;we've heard in the last few years, and yet Polanski himself transposes the history that he has tried to overcome over the course of many years repeatedly into the film, pushing his own history closer to that of Dreyfus, to the point where he poses as a victim of the same fury of mendacious trials and media," she wrote.<br />
<br />
She added that she remained tight-lipped until now for she felt cautious and young and was filled with a sense of powerlessness. This isn't the first for Polanski and the director had pleaded guilty of raping a minor in 1977. However, he left the USA the following year to escape the sentence.</p>
