Anouk Grinberg is one of the actresses who have decided to break the silence around sexual violence in cinema. In an interview with Agence France Presse (AFP), she charged Jean Becker, the director of the film Les Volets vertes.
She was the companion of the director Bertrand Blier with whom she had a son, Anouk Grinberg distinguished herself in around thirty films at the cinema but also on the boards. At 60, the actress is notably starring in the film Bonnard, Pierre and Marthe, which traces the story of the painter Bonnard played by Vincent Macaigne. If her news is rich, she is especially talked about at the moment for her positions in the affair that taints Gérard Depardieu. While a set designer for the film Les Volets vertes filed a complaint against the one who played Cyrano de Bergerac, Anouk Grinberg spoke about the filming of Jean Becker’s film released in 2022.
In an interview granted to Agence France Presse (AFP), the actress, who was part of the casting of this film alongside Fanny Ardant and Benoît Poelvoorde, delivered his feeling regarding the atmosphere that reigned on the set. “What people saw in Complément d’investigation (on Depardieu), it’s pretty much soft compared to what I saw on the Green Shutters, and I’m not the only one, we all saw it, we all heard it […] From morning to evening, we had the right to his salaceries“, she said. And to add: “On Les shutters vertes, there was apparently a lady (referent) dedicated to (preventing) attacks. She was never introduced to me […] she never supported women who were attacked. She never intervened when we heard about pussy, pussy, cock, getting sucked.”
Anouk Grinberg is not tender towards Jean Becker
If Anouk Grinberg criticizes the behavior of Gérard Depardieu, she does not hesitate to attack, in passing, the director of the film Les Volets vertes. “(Jean) Becker dares to say in the newspapers that my comments are scandalous and that obviously if Depardieu had acted badly, he would have spoken to him about it between men. Come on! He knew very well that two women had been seriously attacked“she considered with our colleagues at AFP before concluding: “When film producers hire Depardieu on a film, they know they are hiring an abuser. Not a potential aggressor: an aggressor.”
