I had a world. I don't think I had a career. I made films.
You have to invent life.
If we opened people up, we’d find landscapes.
I have respect for literature. If he found the words, if she found the words - this is a book!
I was a photographer first.I worked alone. I did it my way as much as I could. I have been sort of courageous about doing things, because I didn't think I should do less than my brothers.
When I started my first film, there were three women directors in France. Their films were OK, but I was different. It's like when you start to jump and you put the pole very high - you have to jump very high. I thought, I have to use cinema as a language.
