“Of course, in the film industry thrives sexism against women, but men also suffer from it! I often encounter this, for example, on the set of photo shoots, when I was asked to undress. You know, if I thought I give the role only because of my appearance, I would quit this job. I want to believe that I represent something more than just a beautiful body, face and hair. It’s humbling when you perceive only as an object of desire,” said the actor in an interview.

So screenwriter and producer James Toback, photographer Terry Richardson, and Roman Polanski accused of rape. Polanski was accused by American artist Marianne Barnard. She said that he molested her, when the artist was only 10 years old. The girl’s mother wanted the popularity, which brought her samples to the Director. The photo shoot took place on Malibu beach, where the girl had to pose in a bikini and fur coat. The shooting began quite innocently, but soon gained another turn. “Suddenly he asked me to remove the top from a swimsuit. This was nothing: I was only 10 years old and I still often ran around without a shirt on. But then he asked me to remove everything else. I did not like. And I noticed that mother was gone somewhere. I didn’t know where she is, and didn’t know when she’ll be back. And he began to pester me,” says Marianne.
