French actor Gérard Depardieu acknowledged Tuesday that he used crude language around a woman who accuses him of sexual assault and grabbed her hips but denied assaulting her, as he testified for the first time at his landmark trial in Paris. „I am a disgusting slob“, said Depardieu. But he said he „never, ever“ would have pincered a woman between his legs against her will. The woman told the court he’d behaved „like a madman“ who took „pleasure in frightening me“, per the AP. Day 2 of the Paris trial centered on the Oscar-nominated actor’s behavior during the filming in 2021 of Les Volets Verts, where two co-workers allege that he groped them on the set.
