| Subject: LOL, Dominique Strauss-Kahn will sue Cannes movie starring Gerard Depardieu as a sex addict Tue May 20, 2014 8:07 pm | |
| Former IMF supremo Dominique Strauss-Kahn has injected some real-life drama into the Cannes Film Festival with his announcement that he will sue the producers of Welcome to New York, a film about an economist charged with raping a hotel maid.
The economist in the film is called Mr Devereaux and is played by Gerard Depardieu, who could hardly look less like Strauss-Kahn, but the film follows the story of his arrest, the eventual withdrawal of criminal charges and the subsequent eruption of allegations from other women almost exactly. Speaking on French radio, Strauss-Kahn’s lawyer Jean Veil said his client had been left “heartbroken and terrified” by the film and went on to describe it as “a shit, a turd”. He said they would sue for defamation.
