Famed French director Roman
Polanski has criticized that the fight for female equality is a "great
pity."
The 79-year-old Oscar-winner,
who is at the Cannes Film Festival with his new film Venus in Fur, asserted
that "trying to level the genders is purely idiotic," according to
Stuff.co.nz.
"Offering flowers to a
lady has become indecent ... The pill has greatly changed the place of women in
our times, masculinising her. It chases away the romance in our lives,"
the publication quoted him as saying.
Polanski's film is about the
sado-masochistic relationship between a theatre director and an actress.
The actress's part is played
by his wife Emmanuelle Seigner, who is 33 years his junior, and actor Mathieu
Amalric takes the director's part.
Meanwhile his wife Seigner
stole the show at the film's premiere with her plunging red dress that reveals
an eye-popping amount of cleavage. (Source)
