French Actresses Lauch 'Time's Up' Campaign

  • 6 years ago

Over 100 actresses and film professionals in France, including Vanessa Paradis and Diane Kruger, launched their own movement on Wednesday against sexual violence,.
They said they would sport white ribbons at a French awards event this week. Hot on the heels of Hollywood’s “Time’s Up” campaign against harassment, France’s “Now we act” campaign is billed as an appeal to raise funds so that women who have suffered rape or other forms of sexual violence can take legal action. The French appeal also comes after veteran actress Catherine Deneuve and 99 other French women caused a stir last month by saying a backlash against men following the Harvey Weinstein scandal had gone too far.
