PARIS (Reuters) - Shares in EuropaCorp, the film and TV studio group chaired by well-known French film director Luc Besson, slumped on Monday following the emergence of a rape allegation against Besson, which Besson denies.
Over the weekend, Besson's lawyer Thierry Marembert told Reuters that Besson "categorically denied" the allegation, made by an unnamed actress.
