It's a way of living, cinema. And I see my family, I do this and that, I travel. It's a long process to let it happen.

I had a world. I don't think I had a career. I made films.

I call [ordinary people] real people, because they have in themselves an incredible treasure - stories, a way of speaking, a way of sharing, an innocence and a perversity which I find very interesting to discover little by little.

I quit seeing some people who were saying bad things about women; I don't even want to meet them or see them.

The first exhibition [Publo Picasso] was organized by the communist party - because of his position during the war and all that.

It's peaceful to think about the family as a group. I totally believe in extended families.

I had a very good time when I did The Gleaners - even though the people are poor, and I was suffering to see the conditions, and plus they are not such lovely hearts. They are tough to each other, they beat each other, they are rude and they are violent and they drink. They're not sweethearts, you know, but some were so interesting.
