💨 Abstract

The Cannes Film Festival barred French actor Théo Navarro-Mussy from attending the premiere of “Case 137” due to rape allegations from three former partners, although the case was dropped due to lack of evidence. The festival's decision aligns with the #MeToo movement and recent sentiments, reflecting a shift in its stance on sexual misconduct allegations. The actor's attorney disputed the ongoing legal proceedings, and the production company supported the festival's decision out of respect for the plaintiffs.
