An actor who claimed Gérard Depardieu slid his hand up her skirt during filming has reportedly died by suicide on the same day a documentary on sexual assault allegations against the French megastar was broadcast.
Emmanuelle Debever, a promising young talent in French cinema in the 1980s who later pulled back from the limelight, acted with Depardieu, 74, in the 1983 film Danton.
