California justice on Friday dismissed a complaint accusing American actor Warren Beatty of having sexually assaulted a teenage girl on the sidelines of a film shoot in 1973.
Kristina Charlotte Hirsch, the plaintiff, claimed to have met the actor when she was 14 or 15, while he was around 35.
Warren Beatty “used his position and status as an adult and as a Hollywood star to force sexual contact with the plaintiff on several occasions” including “forced sexual intercourse with a minor,” we can read in the complaint.
This was dismissed by a judge in Beverly Hills due to procedural flaws.
The complaint was filed in 2022 under a California law allowing a complaint to be filed despite statutes of limitations.
Warren Beatty, hero with white teeth and square build of Bonnie and Clyde (1967), made his mark on the screens during the golden age of New Hollywood, campaigned for John Kennedy and the Democratic Party and refused numerous roles before deserting the media and cinema scene from 2001 to 2015.
Known for his numerous relationships with different women, he appeared on the arm of Julie Christie, Brigitte Bardot, Vivien Leigh, Jackie Kennedy and Madonna, before marrying, in 1992, Annette Bening, 21 years his junior, with who he had four children.
