French director accused of harassing star hits back
PARIS — The film director accused of sexually harassing French star Adele Haenel when she was still a child has claimed that she hated him because he denied her a part in another film.Haenel rocked the French film industry last month by claiming that Christophe Ruggia "constantly" harassed her from the age of 12 to 15 on her first film, "The Devils".The emotional live-streamed interview in which she made the claims was seen by many as a turning point for France's #MeToo movement.The star of "Portrait of a Lady on Fire" — one of the most acclaimed arthouse films of the year — has since brought formal charges against Ruggia, who she said was nearly 40 when he "forced kisses on the neck".But Ruggia hit back in a so-called counter investigation...
