The charges come after a flurry of allegations against several men in the French filmmaking industry, which critics say has too long provided cover for abuse. Jacquot, 77, and another filmmaker, 80-year-old Jacques Doillon, were detained for questioning on Monday over alleged sexual abuse of much younger actresses who starred in their films, charges both have denied.
