Roman Polanski's actress wife has allegedly been caught on camera attacking a paparazzo.
Reports claim Emmanuelle Seigner lashed out at a female videographer after arriving at her Paris apartment on her motorcycle on Thursday.
In footage obtained by RadarOnline.com, a woman purported to be Seigner can be seen lunging for the woman, who pleads with her for an interview as other snappers took shots of the tussle.
Seigner rushes to hide in the lobby of her apartment building, and peeks her head out as the paparazzo continues to call out for an interview.
As WENN went to press it was unknown if the snapper has filed charges against Seigner, who has refused to comment on Polanski's recent legal battle.
The moviemaker pleaded guilty to a charge of having unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor in 1978, but fled to France before he could be sentenced.
He was finally captured by authorities in Europe last month and is behind bars in Switzerland while officials decide whether to extradite him back to the U.S.
The Diving Bell and the Butterfly actress, who married Polanski in 1989, is said to have pulled their children, aged nine and 16, out of school following the controversy.

Four years ago, a company that was a curious hybrid of old and new made a statement of sorts when it picked up a buzz drama about South African gangsters that had just played the Toronto Film Festival.
"Tsotsi," one of the company's first movies, went on to win a foreign-language Oscar and become one of the highest-earning non-English movies for the year (while its director went on to helm "X-Men" tentpoles). For its acquirer and distributor, a reconfigured Miramax run by Daniel Battsek, an exec imported from Disney's Buena Vista office in London, the release portended what the division would come to excel at: filmmaking chops, tastemaker appeal and surprising boxoffice muscle, though muscle with sometimes limited range.
Gavin Hood's movie also hung on in theaters for nearly five months, a far longer run than many anticipated.
Whether the same could be said of Miramax is a matter for debate.

I have this pet theory about movies, and that is sometimes I think it's much more fun to watch everything go wrong than go right. What I mean by that is that when you get that feeling that the film had every intention of being a straightforward action, drama, whatever, and instead winds up as a comedy. Call me crazy, but it makes me like a film just a little bit more. The reason I mention this is that after watching the first English language trailer for Solomon Kane, in two minutes flat I was able to figure out that this film might look silly, but I don't mean that it looks bad. Instead, this particular flick shapes up to what I like to call a 'Cornball delight' -- and to give you an idea of what I mean, think of a movie like Reign of Fire.

Films on the cutting edge. That's how I would describe the 50 movies on this list. While some moviegoers may find it an 'alien' experience to refer to sub-titles in understanding what's happening on the big screen, a good number of audiences are totally enjoying the different and often surprising take by many foreign filmmakers, nothwithstanding the language barrier.
Content-wise, the 50 movies feature stories about war and peace, love and romance, family affairs, coming-of-age tales, cultural and religious diversity, social issues (including prostitution and abortion) and personal - celebrating life or facing death with dignity. Coverage-wise, tMF list down many of the best foreign films from 2000 until last year from the UK, France, Germany, Spain, Italy and about 15 other countries in Europe, North and Latin America and Asia-Pacific.
