Catherine Deneuve has long been a French national treasure, and in a new movie, “The President’s Wife,” the icon plays a woman of similar status: the former first lady of France, Bernadette Chirac. Like her late husband Jacques, Madame Chirac was a conservative, and though Ms. Deneuve hints in press notes that she did not share her political views, the performer did diverge from liberal orthodoxy when she questioned the methods and reasoning behind the #MeToo movement in 2018.
